OpenBB Federal Reserve Provider

This extension integrates Federal Reserve data into the OpenBB Platform: Federal Reserve Board statistics not published to FRED, research and survey data from the twelve regional Reserve Banks, and FFIEC bank-supervision and regulatory reports. No authorization is required for access.

The FFIEC integration supplies high-quality output that is ready-to-use and fully parsed. Data is suitable for finance professionals, banking industry analysts, data scientists, AI analysis, and proprietary research.

pip install openbb-federal-reserve
