The roundtable will be held over lunch on April 16, 2019, from noon to 1:30 p.m. 

Following a presentation on the state of the United States’ economy by Ms. Alison Felix, Vice President, Economist and Denver Branch Executive of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, Members will be expected to contribute to a conversation on the evolution of how our Members' individual sectors impact the United States’ economy.

The Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City is interested in responses to the following questions from our Members:

  • What are your (economic) expectations over the next six months?
  • How do your (economic) expectations differ compared to last year?
  • What are the key factors driving your (economic) expectations?

The information discussed during this roundtable will be shared with Esther George, President of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, to help her understand the effects of our Members' sectors in our region as she prepares to participate at the Federal Open Market Committee meetings. The Denver Branch is one the offices responsible for Federal Reserve activities in the Tenth District, with headquarters in Kansas City, covers all of Colorado, Wyoming, Kansas, Nebraska and Oklahoma, as well as parts of Missouri and New Mexico.
