The Fed is run by the Board of Governors. There are 7 members of the Board of Governors, each appointed by the President of the United States with the confirmation of the U.S. Senate for 14 year terms. The Board of Governors are aided in their policy making by the Federal Advisory Council which consists of 12 prominent bankers, each appointed by the Presidents of the 12 Federal Reserve Banks located around the country. The Fed's chief policy-making body is the Open Market Committee which consists of the 7 Board of Governors plus 5 Federal Reserve District bank presidents.
