Housing plays a central role in the nation’s economic health, and through the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland’s Business Advisory Council, Howard Hanna leadership will now help bring real-world housing insight into those conversations. Representing that voice is F. Duffy Hanna, president of Howard Hanna Financial Services, recently appointed to serve on the council.
His appointment signifies another example of Howard Hanna leadership making an impact in real-world housing and economic conversations. In his role, Hanna will contribute insights on housing finance, market conditions and economic trends affecting communities throughout the Fourth Federal Reserve District. His perspective as a long-time industry leader helps ensure that housing and real estate considerations remain central to broader economic discussions. “Howard Hanna has long believed that housing is central to economic vitality,” said Hanna. “I’m proud to continue that commitment through service on the Cleveland Fed Advisory Board and to contribute perspectives shaped by decades of experience in housing finance.”
Hanna is one of three new members, joining Benjamin Bush, vice president, public affairs, Allegheny Conference on Community Development and Elizabeth MacLeod Walls, president, Washington & Jefferson College, to be named the Southwest Pennsylvania and Northern West Virginia board. The trio brings the number of members on the council to 11.\
The Cleveland Fed Advisory board is in place to provide timely information on business conditions to help researchers identify emerging trends and to inform policymakers about the impact of monetary policy on the regional economy. Hanna will make a significant contribution to the board with his knowledge of the real estate world, bringing a practical perspective on market trends and on-the-ground conditions.
