    Minutes of the Fed's FOMC show a unanimous 12-0 vote in September to raise the federal funds target range to 3-3/4 to 4 percent

    The Federal Reserve released minutes of the Federal Open Market Committee's September 15-16 meeting on October 7. They show all 12 voting members supported raising the target range for the federal funds rate a quarter percentage point, to 3-3/4 to 4 percent, effective September 17, with none voting against. The minutes record one vote but different reasons: many participants called the higher path prudent on risk-management grounds, a number called it necessary on their own forecasts, and most assessed another increase would likely be appropriate by year end.

    The Federal Reserve raised interest rates a quarter point on September 16, to a range of 3.75 to 4 percent, by a unanimous vote. Its own projections put one more increase on the table before the year ends.

    The Federal Open Market Committee raised the federal funds target range by a quarter point to 3-3/4 to 4 percent on September 16, 2026, voting 12 to 0. In July it had held the rate, with three members dissenting in favour of a hike. The statement's reason fits in three words, 'Inflation remains elevated', and it says the increase 'will support a timelier return' to the 2 percent goal. The Fed's projections raised its median inflation estimate for 2026 to 3.7 percent and its median year-end rate to 4.1 percent, up from 3.8 in June. Twelve of the 18 officials put the rate at 4.125 percent at the end of 2026, a quarter point above where it now sits. The next meeting is October 27 and 28. The Fed's documents say nothing about what this means for mortgages, credit cards or savings.
