What does the Federal Reserve actually do, and why should small business owners care?

In this episode of The Confident Entrepreneur, Jennifer sits down with Shari Bower, Regional Executive at the Miami Branch of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, for an approachable Federal Reserve 101 conversation.

Shari breaks down how the Fed works, what drives decisions around interest rates and inflation, and how those decisions ultimately affect businesses. She also shares how the Fed gathers real-time insights directly from business leaders to better understand what's happening beyond the economic data.

Whether you follow every Fed announcement or usually tune them out, this conversation makes it easier to understand what’s happening and why it matters to your business.
