SWISS NATIONAL BANK ON INFLATION


To:     The Right Honourable Swiss National Bank President Mr. Thomas Jordon

From: Athinarayanan Sanjeevraja

Date: November 12, 2018

RE:     Inflation

Suggestion:
Mr. President let me start by paying my respects to you and through you to. The Swiss National Bank introduced a unique monetary policy framework which is based on inflation forecast in 2000. It was successful most of the time in reaching its mail goal. Swiss inflation hit to 1.2% for the first time since 2011. If I am not mistaken, soaring oil prices, more expensive imports and SNB exchange rate intervention drove Swiss inflation to 1.2%. Swiss inflation momentum is improving gradually. I do expect that Swiss inflation will range from 1 to 1.3 over the next couple of years. PPP (Purchasing Power Parity) will compensate for the difference in inflation between the currency zones. I fervently hope that Hon. President to keep inflation in check and to ensure the health of Swiss financial market. IMHO, price stability not as an end in itself but Hon. President should showed disciplined and reflected commitment to the goal of effectively and predictably stable prices. And also means of achieving stable and sustainable Swiss growth. There are many research concluded that the exchange rate intervention did indeed enhance into inflation. Svensson (2000) pointed out the success of exchange rate intervention lies in the inflation expectation. As an Analyst I do believe that exchange rate intervention is a convenient unconventional monetary policy tool. In my humble request to Hon. President, the exchange rate intervention should not stop until the SNB reaches its inflation goal.      
      
Thank you very much for your attention.

THE UK SECRETARY STATE FOR BUSINESS SIR VINCE CABLE

To        The Right Honorable Secretary of State for Business Vince Cable MP.        From:   Athinarayanan Sanjeevraja Date:   December 19, 2011 RE:       UK Manufacturing   Suggestion: UK Corporate Tax Reform Good Morning Minister. I read Financial Times, London, it reported that you announced £ 125 million set up to improve the global competitiveness of UK advanced manufacturing supply chains. Today companies compete on the competitiveness of their overall supply chains. The loss of major UK plants could jeopardize critical mass in the UK supply chain. It would be a good place to start but as for UK manufacturing and supply chains that are built on complex and often incoherent. From my perspective UK manufacturing policy is still ineffective. In an effort to revive the manufacturing sector, first, focus on raising the productivity because a successful and dynamic economy...
