c- From the fourth section- describe the difference between how Fed go.pdfJoshuaT27Hunterd
c. From the fourth section, describe the difference between how Fed governors are put into their
positions versus how District Bank presidents are put into their position. Which is most closely
tied to the political process? d. From the final section, state the ways in which the Fed is
accountable to Congress. Checks and Balances The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) is
the body within the Federal Reserve System that determines monetary policy for the country.
The committee consists of up to 19 participants-seven Federal Reserve Board governors (if all
positions are filled) and the presidents of the 12 Federal Reserve Banks. The governors are
political appointees: They are nominated by the president of the United States and confirmed by
the Senate. Governors are appointed to 14-year terms so that appointees serve beyond the tenure
of the presidents who nominate them, reducing the likelihood that one president appoints a
majority of the governors. Because the seven governors are political appointees, they are
intended to be the most directly accountable to the public. The 12 Federal Reserve Bank
presidents are not political appointees. Each Federal Reserve Bank has a local board of directors
whose members select its regional Bank president. All members of local boards of directors are
subject to Board of Governors approval. And, appointments of Federal Reserve Bank presidents
are also subject to Board of Governors approval. Because they are not political appointees, the
presidents of the 12 Federal Reserve Banks are intended to be insulated from politics and to
represent regional interests. The FOMC consists of 12 voting members - the seven members of
the Board of Governors (if all positions are filled); the president of the Federal Reserve Bank of
New York 8 ; and four of the remaining 11 Federal Reserve Bank presidents, who serve on a
rotating basis (Figure 3). All 12 of the Federal Reserve Bank presidents attend FOMC meetings,
report on economic conditions in their respective districts, and participate in the policy
discussions, but only the five presidents designated as voting members at the tim vote on policy
decisions. 9 This structure maintains centralized power but also makes sure that regional interests
are represented in policy. The Power of the Purse In the Federal Reserve Act, Congress gave the
Federal Reserve the power to earn its own income. This income comes primarily from the
interest the Fed earns on the government securities it acquires through open market operations.
10 Because funding can be a way to wield influence, Congress did not give itself the "power of
the purse" over the Fed. For example, if the Federal Reserve were dependent on Congress for
funding, members of Congress could threaten to cut the Federal Reserve's budget to get the
policy decisions they desired. The Fed does not keep all of its earning, however. After paying its
expenses and legally mandated dividend payments to member banks 11 the Federal Reserve.

Solution
Q. On what grounds is the semi-independent status of the Federal Reserve justified by those who
defend it?
Because the structure and status of the Federal Reserve is CLEARLY defined BY LAW. U.S.
Code, Title 12, Chapter 3 covers the structure and governance of the Federal Reserve System.
Also, because people who defend the Federal Reserve System actually know how it works and
how it is structured. We don\'t base our knowledge on conspiracy theories or some quote taken
out of context.
The Federal Reserve System is controlled by a Board of Governors, also known as the Federal
Reserve Board. The Board of Governors, located in Washington, D.C., provides the leadership
for the System.
The Board of Governors is the national component of the Federal Reserve System. The board
consists of the seven governors, appointed by the president and confirmed by the Senate.
Governors serve 14-year, staggered terms to ensure stability and continuity over time. The
chairman and vice-chairman are appointed to four-year terms and may be reappointed subject to
term limitations.
A network of 12 Federal Reserve Banks and 25 branches make up the Federal Reserve System
under the general oversight of the Board of Governors. Reserve Banks are the operating arms of
the central bank.
Each of the 12 Reserve Banks serves its region of the country, and all but one has other offices
within their Districts to help provide services to depository institutions and the public. The Banks
are named after the locations of their headquarters-Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Cleveland,
Richmond, Atlanta, Chicago, St. Louis, Minneapolis, Kansas City, Dallas, and San Francisco.
The Reserve Banks serve banks, the U.S. Treasury, and, indirectly, the public. A Reserve Bank
is often called a \"banker\'s bank,\" storing currency and coin, and processing checks and
electronic payments. Reserve Banks also supervise commercial banks in their regions. As the
bank for the U.S. government, Reserve Banks handle the Treasury\'s payments, sell government
securities and assist with the Treasury\'s cash management and investment activities. Reserve
Banks conduct research on regional, national, and international economic issues. Research plays
a critical role in bringing broad economic perspectives to the national policymaking arena, and
supports Reserve Bank presidents who all attend meetings of the Federal Open Market
Committee (FOMC).
Each Reserve Bank\'s board of directors oversees the management and activities of the District
bank. Reflecting the diverse interests of each District, these directors contribute local business
experience, community involvement, and leadership. The board imparts a private-sector
perspective to the Reserve Bank. Each board appoints the president and first vice president of .
