EDUCATION SESSION #1063
Close-up View of the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis
The Federal Reserve Bank is central to our economy, yet it may appear mysterious. What exactly does it govern? Who makes decisions and how are they made? How is the financial services industry impacted? What are recent regulatory changes and what lies ahead?

Get a close-up view of The Fed, at the national and regional levels, with Christine Gaffney, Senior Vice President of Supervision, Regulation and Credit at the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis.

With oversight of banking activity based out of Minneapolis and its neighboring regions, plus national work on behalf of the entire Federal Reserve System, Gaffney will provide an overview of the Federal Reserve, the 12 Regional Banks within the System, and the state of regulation. She will also reflect on her own career journey, including her unique viewpoint during recent economic challenges.

Bring your questions as you take a deeper dive into the institution that serves as a cornerstone of the nation’s monetary and financial system. Network with your peers over drinks and hors d’oeuvres following the discussion.
