kaplan-pic-smAnnual DBC Fed Event: Economic Conditions and the Role of Monetary Policy

Ticket Deadline Tuesday, Sept. 11 at 5:00 pm. NO TICKETS AT THE DOOR.

REGISTER TODAY for a moderated conversation between Dallas Federal Reserve President Kaplan and Hill A. Feinberg, Chairman & CEO of Hilltop Securities Inc. This is a "can't miss" event hosted by the DBC!

The Dallas Business Club, a consortium of 27 MBA alumni clubs, will host a conversation with Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas President Robert Kaplan, moderated by Hill A. Feinberg, Chairman & CEO of Hilltop Securities Inc. The conversation – one of the last public events before the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting blackout – will address current economic conditions at the state, national and international level and how these economic trends will affect monetary policy.


President Kaplan, a Harvard Business School alumnus, is a 2018 member of the FOMC representing the 11th Federal Reserve District—Texas, northern Louisiana and southern New Mexico. The FOMC reviews economic and financial conditions, determines the appropriate stance of monetary policy, and assesses the risks to its long-run goals of price stability and sustainable economic growth. President Kaplan and Hill Feinberg will discuss broad secular trends that are influencing the economy and take questions from the audience and media at the event.
