The US Federal Reserve raised the interest rate by 0.25% on Wednesday as it battles stubborn inflation and a banking crisis, which has pushed the central bank into taking its largest emergency actions since the onset of the pandemic.
The rate hike brings the Fed's policy rate, the federal funds rate, to a new range of 4.75%-5%, the highest since October 2007.
