**Who:** Kevin Warsh, a former Federal Reserve Governor.
**What:** Warsh is advocating for a shift away from the current Ample Reserves Framework, aiming to restore a monetarist approach rooted in Milton Friedman’s principles. He believes that inflation is driven by expansions of the Fed’s balance sheet and government debt, not by economic growth.
**When:** Warsh’s perspective became prominent following his resignation from the Federal Open Market Committee in 2010 and continues to shape his stance as of 2023.
**Where:** At the Federal Reserve, USA.
**Key Numbers/Data:** Warsh’s advocacy includes a potential ending of the Ample Reserves Framework, which has been in place since the QE2 initiative, and suggests the Fed could adjust rates while simultaneously shrinking its balance sheet. Observers are watching for changes in FOMC statements that could signal a reversion to a scarce-reserves system, shifting fiscal responsibilities back to the Treasury.
