Timothy Geithner Mr. Timothy F. Geithner president Federal Reserve Bank of New York http://www.newyorkfed.org/newsevents/speeches/2008/gei080306.html I am going to talk today about some of the challenges facing the U.S. and financial system. These problems took a long time to build up, and, even with a forceful mix of public policy and action by the private sector, they will take time to resolve. 2008-03-06T13:11:11-4:00 en Council on Foreign Relations Corporate Conference The Current Financial Challenges: Policy and Regulatory Implications 2008-03-06 NYFed Geithner | The Current Financial Challenges: Policy and Regulatory Implications http://www.newyorkfed.org/newsevents/speeches/2008/gei080306.html I am going to talk today about some of the challenges facing the U.S. and financial system.

Geithner president Federal Reserve Bank of New York Council on Foreign Relations Corporate Conference http://www.newyorkfed.org/newsevents/speeches/2007/dud071213.html Today I want to talk about a security market that should offer safety during this period of financial market turbulence - the Treasury Inflation - Protected Securities or TIPS market. Now that this market is more than 10 years old, it should be sufficiently mature to permit a fair evaluation of its efficacy as a funding vehicle for the U.S. Treasury. Some research studies have concluded that the incremental financing costs associated with the TIPS program have been substantial, leading some to conclude that the costs may outweigh the benefits. Today I am going to lay out the reasons why I disagree with this conclusion. 2007-12-13T16:18:50-4:00 en Forecasters Club, New York City Reflections on the Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities Market 2007-12-13 NYFed Dudley | Reflections on the Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities Market http://www.newyorkfed.org/newsevents/speeches/2007/dud071213.html Today I want to talk about a security market that should offer safety during this period of financial market turbulence - the Treasury Inflation - Protected Securities or TIPS market.

Dudley executive vice president Federal Reserve Bank of New York Forecasters Club, New York City http://www.newyorkfed.org/newsevents/speeches/2007/gei071213.html Welcome to the New York Fed and to this conference on liquidity. You are addressing some of the most important issues affecting financial markets today. Your timing is good, perhaps too good. We are all going to need some time and perspective before we will know enough to draw conclusions and recommendations from the events of the past six months. The conditions that led to this crisis took a long time to develop and they will take some time to resolve. I think it is appropriate, though, that as central banks act to address the challenges in markets today, we also begin to define the agenda for future research and policy. 2007-12-13T10:16:26-4:00 en New York Fed Liquidity Conference Restoring Market Liquidity in a Financial Crisis 2007-12-13 NYFed Geithner | Restoring Market Liquidity in a Financial Crisis http://www.newyorkfed.org/newsevents/speeches/2007/gei071213.html Welcome to the New York Fed and to this conference on liquidity.
