We examine economic issues that deeply affect our communities, both within our six-state region of the Ninth Federal Reserve District and nationally.
Our Focus
We conduct world-class research to inform and inspire policymakers and the public. We also produce economic research and provide high-impact analysis and advice to Bank leaders on monetary policy and other strategic initiatives.
Research and Economic Analysis
The Research Division has a long history of producing top-tier academic research on a range of long-term issues broadly related to the policy mission of the Federal Reserve System. We have a historic partnership with the University of Minnesota that has helped produce six Nobel Laureates. Our community is comprised of more than 100 policy economists, research analysts and assistants, consultants, and visiting scholars from around the world.
