• Release Date: This indicates when the statement or minutes were officially released to the public. It is important to note that minutes are typically released with approximately a three-week lag from the meeting date.
• Type: This column categorises the communication, distinguishing between a formal 'statement' and the more detailed 'minutes' of the meeting.
• Text: This contains the full textual content of each communication release, whether it is a statement or minutes.

Distribution

The dataset is typically provided in a CSV (Comma Separated Values) format. It includes communications from 2 February 2000 to 18 June 2025. The file is updated on a weekly basis with new data sourced directly from the Federal Reserve website.

This dataset sheds light on the evolution of published contributions of women economists over a 110-year period. The dataset is collected from the Papers and Proceedings (P&P), an annual volume of the proceedings of the American Economic Association (AEA) annual meetings, which has been published since 1911. It catalogs the 110 years of publications in the annual proceedings volume and provides insight into women's position in the economics profession, as well as differences between men and women with respect to coauthoring patterns, institutional affiliations, and research fields.

The FRB/US model is a large-scale estimated general equilibrium model of the U.S. economy that has been in use at the Federal Reserve Board since 1996. The model is designed for detailed analysis of monetary and fiscal policies. One distinctive feature compared to dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) models is the ability to switch between alternative assumptions about expectations formation of economic agents. Another is the models level of detail: FRB/US contains all major components of the product and income sides of the U.S. national accounts. Since its original development, the model has continuously undergone changes to cope with the evolving structure of the economy, including conceptual revisions to sectoral definitions of the national accounts.

The Agricultural Finance Databook is a compilation of various data on current developments in agricultural finance. Large portions of the data come from regular surveys conducted by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or by Federal Reserve Banks. Other portions come from the quarterly Call Report data of commercial banks or from the reports of other financial institutions involved in agricultural lending. This data is no longer published by the Federal Reserve Board. On October 1, 2010, the E.15 statistical release transitioned from the Board of Governors to the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City. You can now find the most current Agricultural Finance Databook at https://www.kansascityfed.org/research/indicatorsdata/agfinancedatabook.

The Federal Reserve Act of 1913 created the Reserve Bank Organizing Committee which divided the counties of the United States into twelve Federal Reserve Districts each with its own Federal Reserve Bank. The size and vitality of these districts varied. Some were densely populated with substantial urban areas and large industries. Others were sparsely populated and largely rural with the preponderance of the population working in agriculture. Some grew rapidly. Others grew slowly. To help understand the Fed’s role in the evolution of the U.S. economy, we construct a dataset with estimated annual population in each Fed district from 1890 to 1950.

View data of PCE, an index that measures monthly changes in the price of consumer goods and services as a means of analyzing inflation.

An index that can be used to gauge broad financial conditions and assess how these conditions are related to future economic growth. The index is broadly consistent with how the FRB/US model generally relates key financial variables to economic activity. The index aggregates changes in seven financial variables: the federal funds rate, the 10-year Treasury yield, the 30-year fixed mortgage rate, the triple-B corporate bond yield, the Dow Jones total stock market index, the Zillow house price index, and the nominal broad dollar index using weights implied by the FRB/US model and other models in use at the Federal Reserve Board. These models relate households' spending and businesses' investment decisions to changes in short- and long-term interest rates, house and equity prices, and the exchange value of the dollar, among other factors. These financial variables are weighted using impulse response coefficients (dynamic multipliers) that quantify the cumulative effects of unanticipated permanent changes in each financial variable on real gross domestic product (GDP) growth over the subsequent year. The resulting index is named Financial Conditions Impulse on Growth (FCI-G). One appealing feature of the FCI-G is that its movements can be used to measure whether financial conditions have tightened or loosened, to summarize how changes in financial conditions are associated with real GDP growth over the following year, or both.
