GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)

Portuguese to English translations [PRO]
Bus/Financial - Economics
Portuguese term or phrase: acomodatícia
At a loss here, accommodating doesn't really fit. Any economics writers out there?

Thanks!

Em relação à política monetária, o banco central norte-americano (Federal Reserve) deu continuidade à redução da compra de ativos e, de modo geral, prevalecem posturas acomodatícias nas economias maduras. Nas economias emergentes, prevalecem posturas de política monetária relativamente menos acomodatícias.

accommodating (policy stance)


Explanation:
Sugestão.

"Accommodating (policy) stance" é uma expressão também consagrada na gíria económica.

Example sentence(s):
  • From a domestic perspective, the slightly less accommodating stance also aimed at sustaining a non-inflationary recovery
  • Monetary policy helped to spur economic activity and confidence by keeping an accommodating stance, which led to historically-low nominal and real interest rates in 2005
