Federal Reserve left interest rates unchanged

Big Boss Interview

Available for over a year

The US central bank left interest rates unchanged as it said it remained committed to slowing price rises. Members of the Federal Reserve gave the strongest sign yet that they expect to start cutting rates next year. Projections released after the bank's meeting showed they expect its key interest rate to stand at 4.6% next year, more than half a percentage point lower than the current rate.
