Credit Union Man Disapproves
Of Federal Reserve Discount Move
A spokesman for the California
Credit Union League in Pomona
has expressed regret at the recently-announced hike in the
discount rate, by the Federal
Reserve Board, principally because of its effect on the cost of
consumer credit,
Wil W. Wyatt, managing director of the credit union association,
said, "Those persons least able
afford it, the average and lowincome families who must rely
On credit to meet many of their
long -termneeds, will be the most
seriously affected, "
The Federal Reserve Board last
week raised the basic interest
rate, the rate charged. banks
borrowing money from it, from
4 percentto4-1/2 percent. This
led many commercial banks to
raise their own prime rate, or
basic rate for loans to business
from the previous 4-1/2 percent
to 5 percent.
“Consumer loans will feel the
impact of the Board's action also,"
continued Wyatt, “Interest rates
will be upped by most financial
institutions, except credit
unions, "
Credit unions cannot, by law,
charge more than 1 percent per
month on unpaid balance for
loans, explained Wyatt. The
basic rate increase will actually
improve the competitive. position
of credit unions,
“However, we regret the action
that will make consumer credit
more costly to those persons who
donot have access to credit union
services, Credit unions, who
pioneered low-cost credit, have
‘always believed the welfare of all
is better served if credit costs are
kept low.
"Further, we deplore those who
would pass off the Federal Reserve's:
action asnegligible by saying that
consumers pay little attention to
interest rates anyway," added
Wyatt.
As merchants will have to pay
more for business loans, the cost
is likely to be passed on to the
consumer,
