Current report
The Federal Reserve announced at its September 2024 FOMC meeting that it is cutting its benchmark interest rate by 0.50 percentage points, marking the first reduction in four years. This rate cut lowers the federal funds rate into a range of 4.75% to 5.00%, down from its prior range of 5.25% to 5.50%, which had been its highest level in 23 years. The half-point move signals that the Federal Reserve is acting aggressively to keep the U.S. economy from stalling, given that historically most rate cuts are 0.25 percentage points.
Current report
The FOMC statement indicated that the Committee has gained greater confidence that inflation is moving sustainably toward two percent, and judges that the risks to achieving its employment and inflation goals are roughly in balance. The committee noted that “job gains have slowed and the unemployment rate has moved up but remains low.” FOMC officials raised their expected unemployment rate this year to 4.4%, from the 4.0% projection at the last update in June, and lowered the inflation outlook to 2.3% from 2.6%.

Previous report
The Federal Reserve announced at its June 2024 FOMC meeting that it would maintain the overnight federal funds rate at the current range of 5.25% to 5.50%. This decision marks the seventh consecutive meeting at which Federal Reserve officials have opted to hold rates steady and keeps the federal funds rate at the highest target range in 23 years.
Previous report
The FOMC statement was largely unchanged. As expected, the Federal Reserve officials reiterated their commitment to its dual goals of lowering inflation to its 2% target and achieving maximum employment. While inflation has slowed recently and the job market has become more balanced this year, the uncertain economic outlook keeps the Federal Reserve “highly attentive to inflation risks." The FOMC statement reiterated its view that the economy continues to grow at a pace that is too strong to achieve its dual mandate, hence the need for interest rates to be held higher in the short term.

We qualitatively adjust the model results based on this scenario for various risk factors that are not considered within our modeling processes but are nonetheless relevant in assessing the expected credit losses within our loan pools. These Q-Factor adjustments are based upon management judgment and current assessment as to the impact of risks related to changes in lending policies and procedures; economic and business conditions; loan portfolio attributes and credit concentrations; and external factors, among other things, that are not already fully captured within the modeling inputs, assumptions and other processes. Management assesses the potential impact of such items within a range of severely negative impact to positive impact and adjusts the modeled expected credit loss by an aggregate adjustment percentage based upon the assessment. The qualitative factor adjustment at June 30, 2024, was approximately 65 basis points of total loans. The additional provision expense related to the LendingPoint portfolio resulted in the increase in the qualitative factor adjustment when compared to 41 basis points at December 31, 2023.
