美聯儲副主席傑斐遜：通脹仍高於目標，存在上行風險。

The ECB has asked EU leaders to begin selecting Executive Board member Isabel Schnabel's successor, a step that could prompt a broader senior-level reshuffle including the ECB presidency. European Council spokesman said President Costa received a letter from Lagarde requesting the formal appointment procedure for new ECB Executive Board members be started; an EU official confirmed Lagarde asked for immediate action. The Eurogroup is expected to advance the process and may discuss it at its Oct. 8 meeting in Luxembourg, potentially launching a call for candidates. Schnabel said last week she will leave the ECB nearly a year before her term ends to take a senior IMF post; her seat is due to be vacant in early January and EU leaders could make a decision at the December summit.
