Reserve Boosts Savings Interest To 3 Percent
The Federal Reserve authorized insured commercial banks to pay a maximum 3 percent interest on savings and time deposits starting Jan 1. This marks the first change in top rates in 21 years, replacing the previous 2.5 percent limit. About 204 banks insured by the FDIC hold around 50 million dollars in savings and time deposits. The move aims to ease money-market strain by encouraging saving amid high investment demand, while not affecting mutual savings banks or savings and loan associations.
