Federal Reserve Tightens Credits and extends controls
The Federal Reserve on Tuesday tightened credit controls effective Sept 3, moving purchases up to $2,000 under regulation and broadening scope to include single payments and other deals. Durable goods terms remain 15 months for autos and 12 months for other durables, while most installment loans shift to 15 months from 18. The change aims to curb inflation amid rising prices and expanding credit activity, with autos likely brought back under scrutiny due to price hikes including freight charges.
