Together with other federal supervisory agencies, we oversee banks and other financial institutions. We monitor the financial system as a whole for possible risks to its stability. We encourage financial and economic literacy, promote equal access to credit, and advance local economic development by working with communities, nonprofit organizations, and others around the country.
We have assembled a cadre of experts to deliberate on these issues. The leaders of two of the region’s financial behemoths will speak on repositioning the sector and share their companies’ journey to going global, their successes, their experiences, their challenges and their solutions. And the Bank will use the opportunity to describe the economic environment in which the repositioning will take place.
