Today, the Federal Reserve announced key decisions from the latest FOMC meeting: • The federal funds rate target range has been lowered by 1/4 percentage point to 4.25%–4.5%. • This move supports the dual mandate of maximum employment and stable inflation. Recent data shows the economy growing at a solid pace, with easing labor market conditions and inflation progressing toward the 2% objective. The Fed remains committed to monitoring risks, balancing the economic outlook, and adjusting policies as needed. The decision highlights continued vigilance in maintaining stability across financial markets, while ongoing reductions in Treasury and mortgage-backed securities align with long-term goals.

📉 Federal Reserve Cuts Interest Rates Again, Fewer Reductions Expected in 2025 📉 The Federal Reserve has once again cut interest rates, marking a significant move in its ongoing efforts to manage economic stability. However, officials have indicated that we can expect fewer rate reductions in 2025. This decision reflects a cautious approach as the Fed navigates the complexities of the current economic landscape. The latest rate cut aims to stimulate economic growth by making borrowing cheaper for consumers and businesses. This move is particularly crucial as we continue to recover from the economic impacts of recent global events. However, the Fed's forecast of fewer reductions next year suggests a more measured approach to ensure long-term economic health. As we look ahead, it's essential for businesses and investors to stay informed and adapt their strategies accordingly. The evolving economic policies will undoubtedly shape the financial landscape in the coming years.

As the US Federal Reserve gears up for its first interest rate cut since 2020, all eyes are on Fed Chairman Jerome Powell ahead of the 18 September meeting. Financial markets are already reflecting positive signals from anticipated lower rates, but history shows that not all impacts are priced in. The US equity market often sees gains following initial rate cuts, offering a glimmer of optimism. However, recent labour market concerns and upcoming presidential elections add layers of uncertainty. Balancing opportunities and risks, we remain largely neutrally invested, ensuring good portfolio diversification. We discuss this in the latest Our View issue by our Group CIO, Dr. Felix Brill.

Following the September Fed meeting’s guidance, the Federal Reserve has unanimously decided to implement another 25-basis-point rate cut, reinforcing its commitment to curbing inflation while bolstering the labor market. Although more modest than prior cuts, this measured adjustment reflects a careful, ongoing strategy to support economic stability. #PrivateBanking #InterestRates #BancaMarch

“No.”  Stole the show Fed Chair Powell didn’t leave much to speculation when asked if he would step aside if the president-elect asked him to leave. For someone who deflects any politically related question, Powell’s comment at today's post-FOMC press conference was as clear and direct as you will hear from a Fed Chair. Overall, today’s rate announcement unfolded as expected with Fed officials reducing the federal funds rate by another 25bps. While I still see another 25bp cut as the base case at the Fed’s next meeting in December, the odds have come down slightly as inflation has proven a bit stubborn in some areas. #federalreserve #interestrates
