Treye Johnson: Program on Economic Inclusion Econ Games Speaker Series
The Econ Games Speaker Series on February 16th, 2022 features Treye Johnson. During this event, Treye Johnson will discuss the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland's Program on Economic Inclusion. The Program on Economic Inclusion (PEI) is an effort to understand the factors that lead to economic opportunity for all, which they define as universal access to the elements that allow individuals to develop their potential. They are engaged in this effort in part because economic inclusion is central to our economy’s reaching maximum employment, which is one of the two monetary policy goals Congress has given the Fed, the other being price stability. They are also engaged in this effort because economic inclusion is part of the Fed’s responsibility mandated through the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) of 1977: to ensure that low- and moderate-income communities have access to financial products and services.
