The Federal Reserve (Fed), the central bank of the United States, announced this Wednesday (2) the fourth consecutive increase of 0,41 percentage point in the interest rate. Thus, the rate is in the range of 3,80% to 4%, the highest level since January 960.
Consecutive increases are intended to contain inflation, which in September stood at 8.2% in the interannual indicator, well above the Fed’s 2% target.
The US central bank has signaled that it is considering a policy change for the next few announcements, with economists projecting higher interest rates, to have a lesser impact on economic activity.
“Continuous increases in target range will be appropriate to achieve a monetary policy stance sufficiently restrictive to return inflation to 2%,” the Fed said in a statement.
“When determining the pace of future increases in the target range, the committee will take into account the cumulative tightening of monetary policy, the delays with which monetary policy affects economic activity and inflation, and economic and financial developments,” he added.
