Central Banks Reportedly Drafting Support for Jerome Powell

PANews reported that central banks are allegedly preparing a statement to support Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell under the Bank for International Settlements’ name, expected on January 13.

However, no primary sources confirm this support, questioning its validity and potential impact on global markets or cryptocurrencies.

Global Central Banks’ Potential Support for Powell

Central banks globally are said to be drafting a supportive statement for Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. This initiative is reportedly to be issued under the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) banner, marking unique global backing.

No substantive evidence from primary sources substantiates this drafting. Official channels remained silent on such a statement, raising questions about its authenticity. Still, the move suggests a drive to communicate stability in support of Powell.

Market leaders like the European Central Bank and Bank of England have not openly commented. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell emphasized staying committed amid prevailing pressures, but his stance remains individual rather than institutionally backed externally, stating, “I will continue to do the job the Senate confirmed me to do, with integrity and a commitment to serving the American people” (Federal Reserve Speech).
