MEXICO CITY (Reuters) – The Bank of Mexico may need to continue tightening monetary policy to bring down inflation, said Gerardo Esquivel, a member of the central bank’s board.
In an interview with Mexican news outlet Excelsior, Esquivel said the bank’s board “may need to go a little further in the restrictive zone” to guarantee lower inflation.
Esquivel posted a link to the interview on his Twitter (NYSE:TWTR) feed.
