Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas The Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas (Dallas Fed) promotes a strong financial system and healthy economy in the Eleventh Federal Reserve District, which includes Texas, northern Louisiana and southern New Mexico. Through our offices in Dallas, El Paso, Houston, San Antonio, and our team of 1300 employees, we work for and with the people of our district to build a strong and inclusive economy. The Dallas Fed works within the Federal Reserve System and with other public and private sector institutions to foster the safety, soundness and vitality of the United States economy and financial system.

We are one of 12 Reserve Banks that, along with the Board of Governors in Washington, D.C., constitute the nation’s central bank. We are part of the Federal Reserve System, which was established by Congress in 1913. Our mission is to serve the interests of the American public by informing and influencing our nation’s monetary policy, fostering financial stability and delivering quality services to the United States government and the financial institutions in our region. Although established by Congress we are independent of government.

Our responsibilities are wide-ranging. We conduct economic research and gather perspectives from our region to bring to national conversations about monetary policy. We work with government, financial industry and the community to ensure our banking system is safe, accessible and secure. We help maintain a reliable supply of cash and support digital payment. We work with community partners to ensure that all people in our district have opportunities to build a bright economic future. Our success depends on actively connecting with the people and communities we serve.
