This is an excellent question. That's basically why we have a 2% target for inflation. Usually, that provides us with fiscal room to adjust the interest rate according to the shocks. When inflation persistently remains above that percentage, the next risk is increased. The situation is okay if the risk is around 50/50, but if it is below that, the situation is more serious because we are starting out below the target. We want to have faith in the forecast that the inflation rate will increase to 2% and provide us with that fiscal room once again. If the risk continues to grow, we will have to weigh the risk of a more serious problem in the household sector.
