“The biggest problem facing the rich world’s central banks today is that inflation is too low. The average inflation rate in the mostly rich-world OECD is 1.5%, down from 2.2% in 2012 and well below central banks’ official targets (typically 2% or just under)…. None of this means that inflation will not one day be a risk. But it is not today’s problem.”
