The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) has unanimously reaffirmed its “Statement on Longer-Run Goals and Monetary Policy Strategy” during its annual organizational meeting this week. This consensus statement outlines the committee’s approach to monetary policy.
According to the FOMC, the statement reaffirmed is unchanged from the version adopted in August 2025. The committee initially adopted a similar document in 2012.
“The reaffirmed statement is identical to the version adopted in August 2025,” stated the FOMC. “The Committee first adopted a similar statement in 2012.”
The decision underscores continuity in how the FOMC frames its long-term objectives and strategies for U.S. monetary policy.
