History

Dallas was selected in 1914 to be the headquarters of the Eleventh District, in a somewhat surprising move. Originally, New Orleans was considered the favorite; however, while both cities had similarly sized banking operations, Dallas' activity had increased significantly while New Orleans' remained relatively flat, and therefore Dallas was chosen.[3]

Branches

Current Activity

The Dallas Fed is the nation's central processor for Treasury coupons and manages the national Electronic Transfer Account program, processes checks for federal benefit recipients.The Dallas Fed also focused on research dealing with maquiladoras and other U.S.-Mexico border economics.

The current president is Lorie K. Logan, who assumed office in August 2022.[4] Logan succeeded Robert Steven Kaplan, who resigned in October 2021.[5]
