Federal Reserve survey: policy uncertainty is the biggest US risk

Federal Reserve survey on risk reveals new concerns; what effect could these have on rates?

Tariffs and interest rates lead some of the concerns around 'policy uncertainty', the leading risk according to the Fderal Reserve's new survey.

The Federal Reserve Board’s Financial Stability Report, released on Friday, said that policy uncertainty and geopolitical risk were the top stability concerns.

This report summarises the Federal Reserve Board’s framework for assessing the resilience of the US financial system and presents the Board’s current assessment.

The report, whilst US-focused, could show possible global ramifications of many risks due to the abundance of foreign investment in US treasuries.
