San Francisco, CA – The Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco announced the appointment of nine members to its newly-formed Twelfth District Community Depository Institutions Advisory Council (CDIAC). The council, drawn from communities across the nine-state Twelfth District, will meet twice a year to provide input to the San Francisco Federal Reserve Bank’s senior management on a variety of topics, including economic and banking conditions, regulatory policies and payments issues.
“The creation of this council is an important step to further strengthen the interaction our Reserve Bank’s management has with community depository institutions in our District,” said John F. Moore, interim president and CEO of the San Francisco Fed. “It builds on the Bank’s Community Perspectives outreach program, which we established several years ago to increase our understanding of the perspectives of community bankers across our nine-state region.”
Members of the San Francisco Fed’s CDIAC, who will serve three-year terms, represent banks, thrift institutions and credit unions of various sizes within the Twelfth District. Kay Hoveland, president and CEO of Kaiser Federal Bank, Covina, CA, will serve as the Twelfth District’s 2011 representative to meet twice a year with the Board of Governors in Washington, D.C.
