When we hosted our first conference on reforming culture and behavior in the financial services industry in 2014, significant dialogue around misconduct risk, culture, and supervision didn’t exist. Now, as we prepare to host our fourth event on the topic on June 18, supervision is an accepted and critical part of the global conversation on cultural reform in finance.
On June 18, the New York Fed will host its fourth conference focused on reforming culture and behavior in the financial services industry. Speakers and panelists will look at progress to date and the challenges ahead, building on the conversation that started with our first event in 2014.

One key factor in the success of small businesses is financing, and that’s where the Small Business Credit Survey (SBCS) comes in. The SBCS is an annual survey of small business owners that focuses on firms with fewer than 500 employees. It’s fielded by all 12 regional banks in the Federal Reserve System and aims to address important information gaps about business capital needs and obstacles.
Today’s post continues our two-part series on the New York Fed’s recent visit to Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands (USVI), a trip that focused on understanding current economic conditions and recovery efforts in the aftermath of Hurricanes Irma and Maria.

In the first regional roadshow of 2018, President Dudley and a team from the New York Fed traveled to San Juan, Puerto Rico and St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands (USVI) to meet with local nonprofit, government, and business leaders, with the aim of understanding economic conditions and recovery efforts in the aftermath of Hurricanes Irma and Maria. The devastation of these storms resulted in a significant setback to areas already facing very difficult circumstances.
