Please join the Risk Management Association’s Rocky Mountain Chapter for an exclusive in-person programming event featuring Thomas M. Hoenig, who will share his unique insights on sustained above-target inflation, interest rates, significant debt burdens, financial crises and bank supervision.
Mr. Hoenig is the recipient of the 2024 Truman Medal for Economic Policy. The Truman Medal recognizes exceptional economic policy contributions and reflects the role President Harry S. Truman played in the creation of the Council of Economic Advisers.
Mr. Hoenig is a Distinguished Senior Fellow at the Mercatus Center at George Mason University, where he engages in research and comment on economics, money and banking, and related policy topics and provides economic outlook and related services to investment firms and businesses across the country. He served as president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City from 1991 to 2011. In the aftermath of the 2007 recession, Mr. Hoenig was thrust upon a national stage as he spoke out frequently about the financial crisis and its causes, as well as the response to the crisis in terms of both regulatory changes and monetary policy. He cast the lone dissenting vote against the FOMC’s easy money policies at each of the eight FOMC meetings in 2010 and was troubled by the FOMC’s stated promise of keeping the federal fund rates at a historic low for “an extended period.”
Following his retirement from the Bank in 2011, Mr. Hoenig served as vice chairman of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), where he became one of the most influential vice chairmen in its history. He developed an often-cited, understandable comparison of the measurement of core capital levels of the largest banking firms across the globe called the Global Capital Index.
