Le FRS a été créé en 1913 à la suite de la crise de 1907 marquée par des faillites de banques, afin de pourvoir en liquidités le système bancaire. L'émission de monnaie fiduciaire, jusque-là assurée par la Trésorerie et par de nombreuses banques privées dans des conditions de concurrence mal contrôlées, a été centralisée et confiée au système. Outre le contrôle de l'émission des billets de banque, le Federal Reserve System assure la régulation des liquidités, donc du crédit. [...] le FRS ne joue aucun rôle dans le contrôle de la discipline de la profession bancaire, dispersé entre les États et diverses agences fédérales parmi lesquelles le Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation joue le rôle principal. 2, record 7, French, - R%C3%A9serve%20f%C3%A9d%C3%A9rale%20am%C3%A9ricaine
