The Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland President Loretta Mester said in Paris on Monday that the Fed's bond-buying programme and low interest rate will push inflation toward the Fed's 2% target.

She noted that outlook for the U.S. economy is positive. If the U.S. economy faces problems in the future, the Fed could use "unconventional tools" again, Mester said.
