A pair of New England credit union CEOs have been appointed to the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston's First District Community Depository Institutions Advisory Panel.
Ellen Ford, CEO of Middletown, R.I.-based People's Credit Union, is among the latest round of appointees to the panel, along with Robert Miller, president and CEO of Vermont State Employees CU and three others.
The Federal Reserve Board of Governors established the CDIAC in 2010 to provide a “diverse perspective” on the economy, lending conditions and other issues facing thrift institutions, credit unions and community banks with different charters and regulators.
Members attend two meetings per year at the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston and are asked to share information, offer advice and make informal recommendations to the Reserve Bank's representatives during active roundtable discussions.
The CDIAC members represent the six states in the Federal Reserve's First District: Connecticut (excluding Fairfield County), Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Vermont.
The First District CDIAC's next meeting will take place on April 6, 2017.
