The Board adopted a four-year planning horizon and a two-year budget. In developing plans and budgets under the strategic framework, the director of each Board division updates division-wide plans, coordinating efforts with other directors and Reserve Banks as necessary. These plans and resulting resource requests are reviewed by the Committee on Board Affairs to make recommendations to the full Board.
