*For immediate release *
The Federal Open Market Committee decided today to lower its target for
the federal funds rate 50 basis points to 4-3/4 percent.
Economic growth was moderate during the first half of the year, but the
tightening of credit conditions has the potential to intensify the housing
correction and to restrain economic growth more generally. Today's action is
intended to help forestall some of the adverse effects on the broader
economy that might otherwise arise from the disruptions in financial markets
and to promote moderate growth over time.
Readings on core inflation have improved modestly this year. However, the
Committee judges that some inflation risks remain, and it will continue to
monitor inflation developments carefully.
Developments in financial markets since the Committee's last regular
meeting have increased the uncertainty surrounding the economic outlook. The
Committee will continue to assess the effects of these and other
developments on economic prospects and will act as needed to foster price
stability and sustainable economic growth.
Voting for the FOMC monetary policy action were: Ben S. Bernanke,
Chairman; Timothy F. Geithner, Vice Chairman; Charles L. Evans; Thomas M.
Hoenig; Donald L. Kohn; Randall S. Kroszner; Frederic S. Mishkin; William
Poole; Eric Rosengren; and Kevin M. Warsh.
In a related action, the Board of Governors unanimously approved a
50-basis-point decrease in the discount rate to 5-1/4 percent. In taking
this action, the Board approved the requests submitted by the Boards of
Directors of the Federal Reserve Banks of Boston, New York, Cleveland, St.
Louis, Minneapolis, Kansas City, and San Francisco
