Default Re: Need Help from the Smart Economists

They may have posted it correctly; individual lender's rates aren't tied directly to the discount rate. Changes in the discount rate will only influence the lender's rate dependant on their volume of business and lending committee policies.

Generally you'll see lower interest rates when the discount rate is reduced, but it's not a given.
