About us
The Richmond Fed is one of 12 independent regional Reserve Banks that, along with the Board of Governors in Washington, D.C., serve as our nation’s central bank. Together, we’re working to help you be more confident in your financial decisions and in our nation’s economic and financial systems. We serve the public and communities in the Federal Reserve’s Fifth District, including the Carolinas, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia and our nation’s capital. We’re headquartered in Richmond, Virginia, with offices in Baltimore, Maryland, and Charlotte, North Carolina. The Federal Reserve has an impact on your financial well-being and the broader economy by helping promote stable prices, employment and moderate interest rates. We also help ensure the safety and soundness of the financial system — from working with banks to make sure they’re financially healthy, to providing a secure and efficient way to get your payments get from point A to point B. We provide teachers with tools to educate their students about the economy. And we connect with community and business leaders and organizations to better understand local economic conditions, as well as help understand and address economic issues facing low income communities.

There are increasing signs that shoppers are rethinking their spending plans, despite recent signs of consumer price inflation, or CPI, starting to ebb. For example, in the latest July survey, the New York Fed's Survey of Consumer Expectations median expectations for year-ahead spending growth fell from 4.9 percent in July versus 5.1 percent the previous month. In fact, this continues a declining trend in spending growth expectations that started in May 2022, when the median response peaked at 9 percent. John O'Trakoun, senior policy economist, looks at some of the survey evidence that consumers are starting to pull back on spending.

Earlier this month, we bid farewell to 47 interns from more than 20 colleges and universities. Three of those interns — David Cox, Adin Hammond, and Tyrese Wheaton — joined Speaking of the Economy, the Richmond Fed's podcast, to describe their summer interning in three different departments. Host Tim Sablik, a senior economics writer in the Research Department, asked them what led them to the Richmond Fed, the most interesting project they worked on, and something they learned about the Fed that maybe they didn't know before, among other topics.

The Great Misalignment, a study by Georgetown University Center on Education and the Workforce, offers insight into the American labor market and the sub-baccalaureate credentials held by adults across the country. What is misalignment? It occurs when adults have sub-baccalaureate credentials that don't align with jobs available in their local area. As a result, there is a mismatch in what students train in, and what skills they need to gain employment. This creates inefficiencies for potential workers as they search for employment and for employees as they search for employees. Research Associate Anthony Tringali and Senior Regional Economist Laura Ullrich explore credential-job misalignment in middle skills occupations in the latest Community College Insights, the Richmond Fed's series that provides deep-dive analysis and commentary on the latest data, research and policy updates from our Community College Initiative.

In conversations with business leaders across the Fifth District, we have heard about labor availability challenges across all geographies. In fact, labor availability differs between small cities and rural areas versus large urban centers, but the COVID-19 pandemic made it harder for firms in small cities and rural areas to find workers compared to firms in urban areas. Renee Haltom, regional executive and vice president of Research communications, and Jason Kosakow, survey director, discuss the increased challenges finding the right workers across geographies and the annualized wage growth in small towns and rural areas compared to urban areas. Read about their findings and their work understanding conditions in these areas by monitoring changing business conditions: https://bit.ly/3M6Vyx2 #RegionalMatters #Rural #Urban #LaborMarkets

Did you know that rent and homeowners' imputed rents made up 33 percent of year-over-year personal consumption expenditure (PCE) inflation in June, despite only accounting for 15.4 percent of the PCE spending basket? Housing services — which include tenants' rents and imputed homeowners' rents — continue to be a major contributor to inflation relative to the share of housing in PCE. In this week's Macro Minute, the weekly blog that explores the numbers behind the headlines on the national economy, Senior Policy Economist @John O'Trakoun looks at what the data might be indicating for the near-term outlook of housing services prices: https://bit.ly/4di9TTl #MacroMinute #Housing
