    Fed Policy Corridor

    By Updated

    The band within which the Federal Reserve targets the overnight rate, bounded above by IORB (interest on reserve balances) and below by the overnight reverse repo (ON RRP) facility rate. The corridor is the operational framework the Fed uses to keep market rates inside its target range. Where SOFR trades within the corridor signals whether the system is well-supplied with reserves or trending toward stress.
