Impact of Federal Reserve Rate Cuts on Credit Card Rates

Reported 1 day ago

As the Federal Reserve is expected to reduce interest rates in December, LendingTree's Chief Credit Analyst, Matt Schulz, discusses how this may affect retail credit card rates. He notes that high current Annual Percentage Rates (APRs) are due to the inherent risk for card issuers, leading to elevated interest rates. Despite higher rates, consumers may become more inclined to apply for store credit cards in 2025 as they look for ways to manage their holiday spending.
