Office of Financial Research Update: 2015 Annual Report To Congress

The OFR released its 2015 Annual Report to Congress today, fulfilling its statutory responsibility to report on potential threats to U.S. financial stability, key research findings, and progress in meeting its mission. The report also describes the 2016 agenda of the Office. The report says threats to U.S. financial stability have edged higher since last year's report, but remain in the medium, or moderate, range; that assessment has not changed since the Federal Reserve incrementally increased short-term interest rates last month.
