Research

Our research economists contribute to the Bank’s work and support the formulation and execution of policy in the areas of monetary policy, regional and household activity, banking supervision, payments systems, and financial markets. They also conduct and publish independent research that shapes professional thinking about issues central to the Federal Reserve as well as economics more broadly.

Data and Statistics

The Data and Statistics Function manages the collection of financial and bank structure data from domestic and foreign depository institutions, capital market participants, and bank holding companies. These data are used regularly in the implementation of monetary and foreign exchange policy, the construction of the monetary aggregates, bank supervision and compliance monitoring, and the monitoring of domestic and international markets. Data and Statistics is also responsible for driving the Bank's strategy on data, elevating the capacity for connecting and synthesizing the increasing number and scale of disparate and complex informational sources, and creating insightful analysis and policy work. It also provides advisory services on data quality and analytics.
