韩国央行副行长柳相岱表示，在中东局势持续不稳定的情况下，美国联邦储备理事会（FOMC）最新决定连续第二次会议将基准利率维持在 3.5-3.75%，这加深了美国联邦储备理事会利率路径的不确定性。韩国央行将密切关注风险，并在必要时采取行动稳定市场。
柳传志周四在一次市场评估会议上发表了上述讲话，指出FOMC会议的结果和持续的中东紧张局势等外部风险扩大了政策的不确定性。美联储维持今年降息一次的预期。美联储主席鲍威尔强调油价飙升加剧了通胀压力，敦促对未来的宽松政策保持谨慎。
在此之前，美联储已进行过多次降息，包括去年年底将利率下调四分之一个百分点至当前区间。柳传志承诺："我们将继续保持高度警惕，并将继续努力：我们将保持高度警惕，密切关注内外部风险因素及其对市场和经济的影响"，并准备在必要时及时部署稳定措施。
