Minneapolis Federal Reserve Bank President Narayana Kocherlakota: the Fed should adjust its monetary policy so that it can reach its 2% inflation target within two years

Minneapolis Federal Reserve Bank President Narayana Kocherlakota said on Friday that the Fed should adjust its monetary policy so that it can reach its 2% inflation target within two years. He also said that the Fed should not raise its interest rate as the inflation is low and as the interest rate hike will have a negative effect on job creation.

Kocherlakota isn't a voting member of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) this year.
