Federal Reserve System Monthly Report - June 2011

Federal Reserve System Monthly Report on Credit and Liquidity Programs and the Balance Sheet - June 2011

The Federal Reserve prepares this monthly report as part of its efforts to enhance transparency about the range of programs and tools that have been implemented in response to the financial crisis and to ensure appropriate accountability to the Congress and the public. The Federal Reserve’s statutory mandate in conducting monetary policy is to foster maximum employment and stable prices. Financial stability is a critical prerequisite for achieving sustainable economic growth and price stability, and the Federal Reserve implemented a number of credit and liquidity programs to support the liquidity of financial institutions and to foster improved conditions in financial markets in response to the extraordinary strains that began to emerge in the summer of 2007.

This report provides detailed information on the policy tools that were implemented to address the financial crisis. It also provides financial reporting for the Federal Reserve System for the first quarter of 2011. Read the report.
