“The Committee (on open market operations) has decided to maintain the target range of the federal funds rate at 0-0.25% and believes that it would be appropriate to maintain this range until conditions in the labor market reach levels corresponding to the estimates of the maximum employment, and the growth of inflation - a target of 2%, "- said in a statement from the Fed.
The regulator has kept the base rate for the tenth time after it twice unscheduled reduced it in March 2020 to the level of 0-0.25% per annum.
Earlier, the Bank of England kept the discount rate at 0.1%.
