The Federal Reserve System, often referred to simply as the Federal Reserve or the Fed, serves as the central banking system of the United States. Headquartered in Washington, D.C., it operates across various regions, with 12 regional Federal Reserve Banks strategically located throughout the country. Established in 1913, the Federal Reserve plays a crucial role in the U.S. economy, overseeing monetary policy, regulating banks, and maintaining financial stability. The core services of the Federal Reserve include conducting monetary policy, providing financial services, and supervising and regulating banking institutions. Its unique structure, combining public and private elements, allows it to effectively manage inflation and employment levels. Notably, the Federal Reserve has been instrumental in responding to economic crises, solidifying its position as a key player in global finance and economic policy.

The Federal Reserve System, headquartered in the US, currently does not report any specific carbon emissions data, as there are no available figures for kg CO2e emissions. Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges associated with the organisation. As such, the Federal Reserve System's climate commitments and initiatives remain unspecified, and there is no inherited emissions data from a parent organisation. Without concrete emissions data or reduction initiatives, it is challenging to assess their environmental impact or commitment to sustainability.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
Federal Reserve System is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
