Chase Manhattan Hikes Prime Rate to 8 Percent Reluctantly
David Rockefeller testified before the House Banking and Currency Committee that Chase Manhattan Bank raised its prime rate to 8 percent with reluctance but due to money market conditions. He said the move aimed to deter borrowing shifts to other banks and noted misunderstandings and loose charges tied to the rise. He argued higher rates reflect inflation and not its cause and linked inflation at about 6 percent to higher rates.
