The Federal Reserve and Monetary Policy
Do some research and find what policies the Federal Reserve implemented during the last 20 years. Then in a 1-2 page paper, address the following:
- What did it do with interest rates and the required reserve?
- Compare the Federal Reserve’s actions to the performance of U.S. GDP.
- Finally give an analysis as to why or why not you feel these policies were successful. Remember to support your position and to allow for lag time.
