Jan. 10, 2011 - PRLog -- Cardea Partners released their 2011 Interest Rate Forecast today.  The brief includes commentary on the US economy, as well as forecasts for interest rates including LIBOR, Prime, US Treasury yields, and swap rates.  Corporations, municipalities, real estate entities, auto dealers, and not-for-profits use this forecast for the annual budgeting.  The forecast can be found at the firm's website here: http://www.cardeapartners.com/blog/2011-interest-rate-forecast/

Christopher Hunt, principal in the Cardea Partners' Cleveland office commented,  "Most prognosticators believe that all rates will rise in 2011 as risk assets become required portfolio holdings once again...the fundamental premise of our projections is this: the US economy and employment will improve steadily over the course of the year, leading the Federal Reserve to end asset purchases and shift its incredibly accommodative stance by raising the Fed Funds Target rate by 0.50% in the fourth quarter."
