Federal Reserve Board: Speech By Governor Bowman On Advancing Our Understanding Of Community Banking At "Community Banking In The 21st Century" 2019 Community Banking Research And Policy Conference Sponsored By The Federal Reserve System, The Conference Of State Bank Supervisors, And The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, St. Louis, Missouri

Date 01/10/2019

It is a special honor for me to be part of this conference and its tradition of advancing our understanding of how banking shapes our economy and our communities.1 As a community banker, I sought out actionable research that I could leverage to better serve my customers and my community. As a state bank regulator, I conducted my own research to answer questions about issues affecting the banks my agency regulated. I also appreciated learning what researchers thought would provide better insight into the industry. Today I am honored to be here as the first person to serve on the Federal Reserve Board in the role that the Congress designated for someone with community banking or state supervisory experience. My work at the Board has given me an even greater appreciation for how creative, insightful research informs and shapes policy decisions that support our economy. But it also tells me there is still much to be learned and many additional areas that deserve more exploration.

Introductory Remarks By Vice Chair Richard H. Clarida At "Nontraditional Data, Machine Learning, And Natural Language Processing In Macroeconomics," A Research Conference Sponsored By The Federal Reserve Board, Washington, D.C.

Date 01/10/2019

Good morning, and welcome to the Federal Reserve Board's research conference "Nontraditional Data, Machine Learning, and Natural Language Processing in Macroeconomics." Here at the Fed, we are continually assessing the current state of the economy, updating our outlook for economic activity, and estimating the risks around that outlook. In this environment, we assess a broad array of government and private-sector data to determine what they imply for the achievement of the Fed's statutory goals of maximum employment and price stability. As a result, this conference and the range of topics on your agenda for today and tomorrow are highly relevant for us. More timely and accurate information sourced from nontraditional data and the use of new techniques should permit Board staff economists to make better estimates of the evolving news and what it implies for the economic outlook and allow policymakers to make better-informed decisions.
