The Federal Reserve and CD rates
Cd Rates Highest Local Banks
When the Federal Reserve makes interest rate decisions, the rates that banks offer on CDs can change.
The Fed can choose to raise or lower the federal funds rate. Once the central bank makes a decision to change the rate, banks will generally move CD yields in the same direction. Broader macroeconomic conditions also influence CD rates.
CD rates typically follow the direction of the Federal Reserve closely. For example, in 2020, the Fed made two emergency cuts and CD rates have been declining at some banks to protect their profits.
How are CD interest rates determined?
CD rates are determined by several factors. The decisions made by the Federal Reserve on the federal funds rate will influence CD rates.
Competition among banks and credit unions will also influence the payout out on their CDs as well as whether the financial institution needs deposits or not. In general, online banks tend to pay higher rates than banks with branches.
Changes in Treasury yields and economic conditions also influence CD rates.
