How can you invest in The FED

[Pauls' Revere]

I was wondering, how can someone invest in The Federal Reserve Bank System?

It seems that it would be a prudent investment since they dont seem to be on the verge of dissappearring anytime soon. Is there a way to invest in the central bank? Do they issue bonds? stock? notes? how can the public invest in it?

They WILL be disappearing soon. They'll probably be replaced by a world central bank.

Can U.S citizens invest in the Federal Reserve?

No, stock ownership of Federal Reserve district banks is restricted to national banks and certain state banks. Private individuals, corporations, and foreign governments are not allowed to own Federal Reserve stock. This is in accordance to law. Additionally, Federal Reserve stock is a little different than the stock of a corporation. Federal Reserve stock does not confer any rights of ownership to the holder beyond the par value of the stock. The stock does pay an annual 6% dividend, but that is about it. Member banks are required to subscribe to a specific amount of Federal Reserve stock. This amount is set by law and the member bank cannot subscribe to anymore or any less than the specified amount. National banks, are required to become members and state banks may become members of the system if they meet certain requirements.


BTW, the law that governs the Federal Reserve is Title 12 U.S.C. Chapter 3.

As an addendum, the law does allow for a private individual to hold a small amount of Federal Reserve stock. However, the individual would have to convince the Federal Reserve to sell it to them because the stock is not traded and I can almost guarantee they won't.

That is not talking about investing in the banks though.

The Fed loans money to banks at little to zero interest and cost. Those bank mismange the free money and can't repay until Washington reimburses the loss.

This doesn't some like a good business to invest in.

The Fed has over $2 Trillion of toxic (ie. worthless) debt/assets on it's balance sheet. Atlas is going to get crushed under the weight of the world that it's trying to prop up. $.02
