Inflation and Monetary Policy: Can Strong Leadership Achieve a $7 Trillion Economy by 2030?
Mumbai: India's aspiration to be a $7-trillion economy by the end of the decade can be achieved as strong Prime Minister Narendra Modi rolls out digital and physical infrastructure that's drawing multinationals involved in manufacturing advanced products and services, said Jamie Dimon, chairman and CEO, JPMorgan.
Dimon noted, “We bank 850 multinationals here, employ 55,000 in our global service center, and are significant players in engineering, cyber, tech, data, and AI.” He stressed that international payment systems enhance India’s growth potential by creating substantial economic activity.
With a government aiming for more than 7% annual growth and a strategic push for semiconductor plants, India's economic trajectory points toward success. Dimon also commented on the recent US Fed actions, calling the 50 basis point reduction in interest rates prudent, although he expressed concerns regarding the sustainability of a soft landing for the US economy. High fiscal deficits remain a pivotal factor influencing inflation and borrowing costs.
