  • To promote transparency, the Minneapolis Fed livestreams, records, and/or publishes on our website most of President Kashkari’s public remarks. We also advise the media of his upcoming speaking engagements.
  • Federal Reserve officials generally do not speak publicly during the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) Blackout, which is typically a 13-day period around FOMC meetings. Please consider these dates before submitting your request.
  • President Kashkari’s preferred format is to provide a 10–15 minute overview, followed by an open, town hall-style forum during which questions can be asked by a moderator, the audience, or some combination. Once your request is accepted, staff will work with you to finalize the specific format for your event.
  • Following speaking engagements, President Kashkari typically sends a note to attendees thanking them and connecting them to additional Minneapolis Fed research and resources. We are glad to work with hosting organizations on the format of this communication.
