"Of the two major governmental tools for shaping the economy, Congress controls fiscal policy-taxation and spending-and the Fed makes monetary policy-influencing how much money circulates in the economy, and how quickly. Traditionally the Fed has relied on three instruments: open-market operations (buying and selling U.S. bonds), lending to banks, and setting reserve requirements on bank deposits. It also helps to regulate the financial system. Drawing on years of experience inside the Federal Reserve System, Axilrod shows how these tools actually work, and answers a series of increasingly detailed questions in the series format. He asks, for instance, if the system of regional Fed banks needs modification for today's technological landscape; if there is corruption in the Fed's governance; what happens to profits from its operations; the impact of political pressure; the extent of Congressional oversight; and just how independent it truly is."--,Axelrod draws on his years of experience in the Federal Reserve System to answer questions that cover the legal basis for the Fed, the specific powers available to it, and how these powers are employed in practice. He shows how entwined the nation's monetary policy is with the overall political, social, and financial environment, as well as fiscal and other macro-economic policies both in the United States and abroad.
