advert

Fed announced Wednesday, it intends to sponsor 45-second ads before movie previews targeted counsel consumers about how to use their credit cards wisely during the holiday shopping season.

The Fed decided to launch the campaign when it faces criticism for doing too little to protect its consumers from risky lending practices that helped spark the financial crisis and U.S. economic recession.

The advert will be presented at 12 theaters in major metropolitan areas from November 27 through December 3.
