1 The Federal Reserve, Monetary Policy, and Economic Indicators Megan Williams Associate Economist Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, Oklahoma City Branch
2 The Creation of the Fed The first two national banks, The need for a standard currency The Federal Reserve System is created in 1913 by President Woodrow Wilson The Fed opened for business in 1914 across 12 different cities
3 Map of Fed Districts
4 The Mission of the Fed The Fed was created to: Influence the supply of money and credit through monetary policy Regulate and supervise financial institutions Provide financial services to local institutions Serve as a banking and fiscal agent for the U.S. government
5 Federal Reserve System Structure Board of Governors (7 members appointed by President, confirmed by Senate) Federal Open Market Committee (Board of Governors and five Reserve Bank Presidents) Advisory Councils Consumer Advisory Council Federal Advisory Council Thrift Institutions Advisory Council Federal Reserve Banks (Twelve district Banks operate as arms of the central Bank)
6 Board of Governors Supervises and regulates the Reserve Banks Sets reserve requirements Approves changes in the discount rate Submits reports to Congress on state of economy
7 The Basics of Monetary Policy
8 Monetary policy decisions are forward-looking Based on historical experience, the FOMC knows that policy changes made today will affect economic growth and inflation with a lag of 6 or more months. So, the FOMC is largely concerned with what the economy might look like 6 months to 2 years ahead.
9 Federal Open Market Committee FOMC meets eight times each year Reviews economic and financial conditions Determines appropriate stance of monetary policy Assesses the risk to its long-term goals of price stability and economic growth 12 voting members (seven Board of Governors, president of New York Fed, and four presidents from remaining 11 Federal Reserve Banks on a one-year rotating basis)
10 Monetary Policy Goals Inflation Significant wage increases Significant price increases Recession Significantly high unemployment Significantly shrinking business profits
11 Monetary Policy Tools Reserve requirements Discount rate Open market operations
12 Reserve Requirements and Discount Rate Reserve Requirements Monies banks have to set aside with the Fed By raising or lowering, can affect the money supply Discount Rate Interest Rate charged to banks to borrow money from Fed By raising or lowering, can affect banks supply of money
13 Open Market Operations Influences interest rates Buys or sells Treasury securities Buys Lowers Fed Funds rate, money supply up Sells Raises Fed Funds rate, money supply down
14 Effect of Policy on the Economy Raise Fed Funds rate Economy slows Fewer loans Business revenues decrease More business failures Prices fall Greater unemployment Lower Fed Funds rate Economy heats up More loans Business revenues increase More workers hired Prices increase Workers wages increase
15 Mechanics of the FOMC Discuss current economic conditions Decide on what action to take regarding rate Issue directive to trading desk Issue a statement Release minutes of the meeting
