Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Development of Federal Reserve Policy Owing to the unusual character of the period during which its policy has been developed, many misconceptions have become current regarding the nature and purpose of the Federal Reserve banking system. Some of these misconceptions are so far-reaching as to create serious difficulties for its management. No central banking system can be administered efficiently in an atmosphere of prejudice and misunderstanding. The business public, in its appraisal of the system's management, must be led to apply the tests of sound principles of economics and finance rather than those merely of immediate, individual advantage. It, accordingly, has been the writer's endeavor to do what little his capacities permit to stimulate a proper spirit of inquiry regarding Federal Reserve matters. It has appeared to the writer that a careful examination of the development of the reserve system could be made most opportunely by one not connected with its management. As a minor spur to the writer's efforts there has been the belief that no study offers superior opportunities for investigating the working of the principles of money and credit under contemporary conditions of business and industry. While the book was written for the general reading public, rather than for classroom purposes, it may serve as a second book to follow the reading of one of the elementary texts in college courses in Money and Banking.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Federal Reserve System and the Banks The more important this market grows, the stronger will be the position of the Federal Reserve Banks, for the greater or lesser volume of purchases of such accept ances will Offer one of the Federal Reserve Banks' most efiective means of exercising a wholesome influence upon the fluctuation of interest rates. As normal conditions are reestablished in the world, this acceptance market will become an important factor in protecting our ex change position with foreign countries and, incidentally, our gold holdings. It has taken some time to develop this market, but I am confident that, from now on, its growth will be rapid. One of the obstacles that made the start difficult was found in the fact that many accept auces, which are made for the purpose of financing im portations and exportations, have to be drawn and sold in foreign countries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Details the evolution of the monetary standard from the start of the Federal Reserve through the end of the Greenspan era. The book places that evolution in the context of the intellectual and political environment of the time. By understanding the fitful process of replacing a gold standard with a paper money standard, the conduct of monetary policy becomes a series of experiments useful for understanding the fundamental issues concerning money and prices. How did the recurrent monetary instability of the 20th century relate to the economic instability and to the associated political and social turbulence? After the detour in policy represented by FOMC chairmen Arthur Burns and G. William Miller, Paul Volcker and Alan Greenspan established the monetary standard originally foreshadowed by William McChesney Martin, who became chairman in 1951. The Monetary Policy of the Federal Reserve explains in a straightforward way the emergence and nature of the modern, inflation-targeting central bank.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The ABC of the Federal Reserve System: Why the Federal Reserve System Was Called Into Being, the Main Features of Its Organization, and How It Works The federal reserve banks came into being in the month of November, 1914. The passage of the legislation by which they were created had been preceded by five years of discussion, following the financial upheaval of the fall of 1907, such as might have been expected to prepare the way for the considerable changes in banking methods contemplated by the new law. Notwithstanding, however, that American bankers had gained a better understanding of the deplorable defects in the American banking and currency system, the managers of the new federal reserve banks soon found that the welcome accorded to them by the banks of the country was, to say the least, cool.

Download or read book A History of the Federal Reserve Volume 1 written by Allan H. Meltzer and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 856 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This first volume of Allan H. Meltzer's history of the Federal Reserve System covers the period from the Federal Reserve's founding in 1913 through the Treasury-Federal Reserve Accord of 1951. To understand why the Federal Reserve acted as it did at key points in its history, Meltzer draws on meeting minutes, correspondence, and other internal documents (many made public only during the 1970s) to trace the reasoning behind its policy decisions. He explains why the Federal Reserve remained passive throughout most of the economic decline that led to the Great Depression, and how the Board's actions helped to produce the deep recession of 1937 and 1938. He also highlights the impact that individuals had on the institution, such as Benjamin Strong, governor of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York in the 1920s, who played a large role in the adoption of a more active monetary policy by the Federal Reserve. From attempts to build a new international financial system at the London Monetary and Economic Conference of 1933 to the Bretton Woods Agreement of 1944 that established the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank, Meltzer also examines the influence the Federal Reserve has had on international affairs. The second, and last volume of this history covers the years 1951 to 1986 in two parts. These include the time of the Federal Reserve's second major mistake, the Great Inflation, and the subsequent disinflation. The volume summarizes the record of monetary policy during the inflation and disinflation.
