SSRN's Economic Research Network is pleased to announce that the
Federal Reserve Bank of Boston and the Federal Reserve Bank of New
York will now post their working papers in SSRN's Government & Public
Agency Research Paper Series. This new series enables Government &
Public Agencies to disseminate their research worldwide and to
encourage the exchange of ideas about development issues, governance,
and their relation to the behavior and performance of banks, the
structure of the U.S. banking system, and other national banking
systems as well as the international banking system, and the
interaction between financial institutions and the real economy.

SSRN DOWNLOAD POLICY
SSRN provides worldwide free access to all papers included in all of
our institutional Research Paper Series, and all other papers
uploaded to the eLibrary directly by an author.

SSRN'S MISSION
SSRN's objective is to provide rapid worldwide distribution of
research for authors and their readers and to facilitate
communication among them at the lowest possible cost. In pursuit of
this objective, we allow authors to upload papers without charge. And
any paper an author uploads to SSRN is downloadable for free,
worldwide.

SSRN reinvests all of the cash it receives (principally from
subscriptions to our abstracting journals and from institutions that
use SSRN to distribute their research papers), after servicing debt,
to enhance our services to authors and users. None of SSRN's academic
principals have ever been paid for the time they contribute to SSRN,
nor has SSRN ever paid a dividend to its shareholders.
