PASSAGE
The Federal Reserve, often referred to as the Fed, is the central bank of the United States. Its primary duties include conducting the nation's monetary policy, supervising and regulating banks, and maintaining the stability of the financial system. To conduct monetary policy, the Fed can influence interest rates and the money supply. For example, by raising or lowering the federal funds rate, the Fed can either cool down an overheating economy to fight inflation or stimulate a sluggish economy to promote employment. These actions have a far-reaching impact on the nation's economic health.
