## Resource

Let’s dive into an intriguing topic today—the Federal Reserve and the common myth surrounding its lack of audits. Established way back in 1913, the Federal Reserve, or the Fed, holds a central role in shaping the U.S. monetary policy and controlling the financial system. But many people believe it has never been audited, which is a misconception worth unpacking. Now, while it might sound like the Fed operates in complete darkness, the truth is quite the opposite. The Federal Reserve is subject to several layers of audits and reviews designed to ensure transparency and accountability. For starters, the Board of Governors’ financial statements are audited every year by an independent auditor, appointed by the Board's Office of Inspector General. So, right off the bat, we see that there’s oversight happening. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/conspiracy-theories-exploring-the-unseen--5194379/support .
