Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas

The Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas is part of the Federal Reserve System, the central bank of the United States. We work with other regional Federal Reserve Banks and the Federal Reserve Board in Washington, D.C., to drive monetary policy that is attentive to the diverse needs of communities all across the nation. And we help make sure that, wherever you live, you can rely on money, banks and payments when you use them. Our work at the Dallas Fed supports the entire country, but our heart belongs to the region we call home. We serve the Eleventh Federal Reserve District—Texas, northern Louisiana and southern New Mexico.
