Fed expects a 'mild' recession to begin later this year, meeting minutes show

Federal Reserve meeting minutes released Wednesday show that central bank staff expect financial sector upheaval to trigger a recession sometime this year.

Recent upheaval within the banking system is likely to drag the U.S. economy into a recession later this year, according to the Federal Reserve.

Minutes from the U.S. central bank's March 21-22 meeting released on Wednesday showed that staff members believe a downturn is imminent in the wake of several bank failures. 

"Given their assessment of the potential economic effects of the recent banking-sector developments, the staff’s projection at the time of the March meeting included a mild recession starting later this year, with a recovery over the subsequent two years," the meeting minutes said.

This is a developing story. Please check back for updates.
