Waller was an early advocate within the Fed for a faster pivot away from the ultra-easy monetary policy adopted during the coronavirus pandemic, urging starting the process in August, when the Fed’s target policy rate it was pegged near zero and was buying $120 billion a month in bonds to support the economy.
