The Federal Reserve Act mandates that each Reserve Bank operates under a board comprising nine directors who reflect their District's interests. These directors bring diverse expertise to help fulfill policy responsibilities. Class A Directors represent member banks; Class B and C Directors represent public interests. The directors connect the Federal Reserve with private sector insights to inform monetary policy decisions.
