The Federal Reserve Bank of Boston is one of the 12 Federal Reserve Banks that, together with the Board of Governors in Washington, D.C., make up the Federal Reserve System.

We (the “Boston Fed,” the “Bank”) serve the First Federal Reserve District that includes the six New England states: Connecticut (excluding Fairfield County), Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont.
With the overarching vision of a vibrant economy that works for all, the Boston Fed promotes sound growth and financial stability in our region and the nation and helps to formulate and implement monetary policy.

Our contributions to the First District and the nation are founded on high-quality research and bank supervisory activities, excellence in supporting financial services and financial markets stability, leadership in payments innovation, and an active commitment to supporting economic well-being in communities.
The Bank holds several key System roles, including leading the Financial Support Office, which directs financial management for the System, including managing the budget and related technology programs.

The Bank develops and leads innovative payments programs.

The Bank also played a central leadership role in the Federal Reserve’s crisis responses during both the Great Financial Crisis (2008) and the global pandemic (2020).

The Bank is a thought leader and innovator in numerous areas, including financial stability, monetary policy, and community development.
