The Federal Reserve Board on Tuesday announced the members of its newly created Community Advisory Council (CAC).
The CAC is composed of individuals with consumer- and community development-related expertise who will provide information, advice, and recommendations to the Board on a wide range of relevant policy matters and emerging issues of interest. The fifteen members of the CAC were selected from a pool of individuals who responded to the Board's public request for candidates (HTML). CAC members will initially serve one-, two-, or three-year staggered terms to provide the CAC with continuity. Going forward, new members will be appointed to three-year terms.
The first meeting of the CAC will be held in Washington, D.C. on Nov. 20, 2015. A summary of the meeting will be posted shortly thereafter.
