  Federal Reserve issues FOMC statement For release at 2:00 p.m. EDT Share The Federal Open Market Committee approved the following statement for release by a 9 – 3 vote: The Committee decided to maintain the target range for the federal funds rate at 3-1/2 to 3-3/4 percent, in support of the Federal Reserve's dual mandate. The Committee is continuing its policy of maintaining ample reserves in the banking system. Economic activity is expanding at a solid pace despite elevated uncertainty that owes, in part, to the conflict in the Middle East. Productivity growth and capital investment are strong. Job gains have kept pace with the workforce, and the unemployment rate has changed little. Inflation remains elevated relative to the Committee's 2 percent goal, in part reflecting supply shocks that have driven price increases in certain sectors, including energy. The Committee will deliver price stability.   Voting against the monetary policy action were Beth M. Hammack, Neel Kashk...

Insurance Companies turn to private firefighters to cover their policy holders.

By Lyle Adriano Business Insurance Some insurers, like Chubb, are going the extra mile for select policyholders by sending in private firefighters to deal with wildfire threats before they become a problem. Insurer-provided wildfire mitigation services, while nothing new, has been making waves lately following the recent California fires. The extra service is getting so popular, that homeowners who had witnessed their neighbors’ homes being protected by private firefighters were inspired to purchase their own policies to enjoy the same benefits, some insurers said. “The enrolment has taken off dramatically over the years as people have seen us save homes,” Chubb senior executive Paul Krump told The Wall Street Journal . “It’s absolutely growing leaps and bounds.” Dick Fredericks, founding partner of Main Management Fund Advisors LLC in San Francisco and a former US ambassador to Switzerland and Liechtenstein, was one of the fortunate homeowners in Sonoma whose properties were...

Syracuse Fire Department Credit Union assists in making some happy holiday memories for needy kids.

Syracuse, N.Y. -  Firefighters were among the first to arrive on the scene when a 2-year-old girl was killed while playing with chalk on the sidewalk this summer. The girl's brother was also injured while another sibling watched it all happen. Saturday, the surviving siblings will be doing their Christmas shopping at Destiny USA with some Syracuse firefighters. "We saw them on the worst day of their lives. Now is an opportunity to make some happy memories," said Syracuse Fire Department District Chief John Kane. Nothing will erase the pain and loss the family feels. And nothing will erase the memories firefighters have of trying to save a child who was terribly injured. "It's a little something," Kane said. "Especially this time of year." The holiday shopping trips began five years ago, an idea of Syracuse Police Chief Frank Fowler. Syracuse police Officer Dennis Burlingame organized the event, and invited the fire department...

BOSTON–Fraud threats facing credit unions are becoming more sophisticated and pervasive as digital banking expands and artificial intelligence tools enable increasingly complex attacks, according to new research and analysis from PYMNTS Intelligence .  The report said fraud has evolved from isolated incidents into a “persistent, systemwide threat” that affects every stage of the member journey, from onboarding and authentication to transactions and account servicing.  According to the report, fraudsters are increasingly using coordinated, multichannel schemes that challenge traditional fraud detection and response systems.
