Credit Easing Policy Tools :: Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland The Federal Reserve has introduced a number of new tools for conducting monetary policy and dealing with the financial crisis. These tools have become more important with the federal funds rate close to zero. Chairman Ben Bernanke divides the tools into three groups: Lending to financial institutionsProviding liquidity to key credit marketsPurchasing longer-term securities The new tools make use of the Fed's balance sheet, particularly the asset side, and involve ways of extending credit and purchasing securities. These actions can change both the absolute level of the balance sheet as well as the types of assets it contains. The charts on this site let you see the assets of the balance sheet in a number of ways. This page shows the balance sheet with the individual tools grouped into the three types of new credit-easing tools, plus the base of traditional Fed assets. For an overview of the new tools, see this article. Export to: .XLS .CSV SUMMARY VIEW (Millions of Dollars)
