Release Date: July 6, 1995

For immediate release
Chairman Alan Greenspan announced today that the Federal Open Market Committee decided to
decrease slightly the degree of pressure on bank reserve positions.
As a result of the monetary tightening initiated in early 1994, inflationary pressures have receded
enough to accommodate a modest adjustment in monetary conditions.
Today's action will be reflected in a 25 basis point decline in the federal funds rate from about 6
percent to about 5-3/4 percent.
