Low inflation in the United States (US) and global risks led the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) at the US Federal Reserve to decide to keep the Fed Rate unchanged at 2.25%-2.5% on March 20, 2019. This suggests the US benchmark interest rate will remain unchanged for some time.

In addition to setting the interest rate, the Fed also released economic projections showing a weaker US economic outlook compared to the December 2018 projections. Therefore, the FOMC projected a median federal funds rate of 2.375% for March 2019. This is lower than the December 2018 median projection of 2.875%.
