Each council represents a specific industry that is critical to the Federal Reserve’s Eighth District and is designed to build a consistent and dependable line of communication regarding economic conditions within those industry sectors throughout the District. The members’ observations complement the data and information developed through the Federal Reserve’s Beige Book, the St. Louis Fed’s Burgundy Books and meetings of the Reserve Bank’s boards of directors.
