Lester T. Sanders Joins St. Louis Fed's Real Estate Industry Council

June 22, 2015

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Lester T. Sanders, realtor for Semonin Realtors and immediate past president of the Greater Louisville Association of Realtors in Louisville, Ky., has been named to the Real Estate Industry Council of the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis.

The St. Louis Fed created four District Industry Councils in 2006, each designed to provide the Fed with important feedback regarding economic conditions within a key Eighth District industry sector. The members’ observations—along with the economic data and information developed through the Federal Reserve's Beige Book, the St. Louis Fed’s Burgundy Books and meetings of the Reserve Bank's boards of directors—help ensure that conditions of Main Street America are represented in monetary policy deliberations in Washington.

Each council is supported by one of four of the Reserve Bank's offices: St. Louis (real estate), Little Rock (agribusiness), Louisville (health care) and Memphis (transportation). The councils meet twice a year.
