If the Federal Reserve chairman says that overnight loan rate at the Discount Window will be raised, and reserve requirements of member banks will be raised, this in turn will effect interest rates of many kinds. Normally it means the prime rate of major banks to their prime customers will rise.

This will also increase mortgage rates and all types of loans. The Fed does this to further its monetary policies. Normally, the Fed's action means it believes that economic activity in the economy needs to reduced to a certain extent.
