The New England Public Policy Center's mission is to promote better public policy in New England by conducting and disseminating objective, high-quality research and analysis of strategically identified regional economic and policy issues and, when appropriate, to work with regional and Bank partners to advance identified policy options.
NEPPC was established by the Federal Reserve Bank of
Boston in January 2005. The Boston Fed has provided
support to the public policy community of New England
for many years; NEPPC institutionalizes and expands
on this tradition.
Annually, the Center selects several research projects that investigate policy issues that are important to New England's economy. Our research focuses in two primary areas:
New England demographic and labor markets trends
State and local public finance
