In this article, we discuss what lowering interest rates can mean for the consumer.

The Federal Reserve recently announced a rate cut. What does that mean for you and me?

The Federal Reserve Open Committee (FOMC) recently announced a rate cut. Before you dismiss this as news only relevant to the finance- or bank-types, let’s take another look.

Interest rates set by the FOMC impact the rates banks charge customers. If you have a savings account, student loan, credit card debt, or a home mortgage, changing interest rates can affect you.

This article from CNBC provides some details on how interest rate cuts can impact consumers. Note, link opens in new tab.
