Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System
(redirected from FRB)

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Acronyms 0.01 sec.
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System
The managing body of the Federal Reserve System, which sets policies on bank practices and the money supply.

Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System
A committee of the Federal Reserve charged with implementing monetary policy of the United States. It consists of seven members appointed by the President of the United States and confirmed by the Senate. The chairman of the Board also serves as Chairman of the Federal Reserve. Members serve for staggered, 14-year terms. The length of service is designed to give the Board as much independence from Congress, and therefore immediate political expediency, as possible. The Board makes an annual report on its operation to the Speaker of the House of Representatives and its members serve ex officio on the Federal Open Market Committee.

However, following discussions this month, which indicated the FRB would accept a 60-year term, the RCA has revised its advice on existing betting areas to a 40-year period of tenure to August 31, 2052 "subject to there being agreement on other matters".
Nevertheless, the matters relating to key financial systems maintained and operated by the FRBs on behalf of BPD warrant FRB management's attention and action.
We are grateful that over the past five years, USAID has made grants to FRB in the amount of $3.
