The Federal Reserve Board released the minutes from its recent meetings to review and set the discount rates offered to depository institutions through the discount window, according to a notice on its official website.

The minutes cover Board meetings conducted on August 17, September 9, and September 16, 2026.

The Federal Reserve said its process for determining the discount rate is distinct from the process used by the Federal Open Market Committee to set the target range for the federal funds rate.
