BEIGE BOOK

Beige Book

Beige Book eight times a year

Current economic conditions

The Beige Book is intended to provide a broad overview of the economy, taking many variables and indicators into account. The Central Bank examines issues such as labor market pressures on wages and prices, the activity of the retail and e-commerce, and industry data. The report is eagerly awaited and discusses its problems for the upcoming quarter. By itself, the Beige Book will probably not have large effects on the markets in the short term, primarily because no new data set is presented there.
