The Future of the Federal Reserve Symposium

We hosted the Future of the Federal Reserve Symposium on February 6, 2026.

This symposium brought together leading scholars, practitioners, & government officials to examine the legal and institutional foundations of the modern Federal Reserve—and the forces reshaping its role in American governance.

Hosted by the Michigan Law Federalist Society, in conjunction with The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, and the Michigan Law Digital Assets Law Association, the symposium explored how courts, Congress, and financial markets are redefining central banking amid increased constitutional, political, and economic scrutiny.
