Regional Economic Information Network (REIN)

Established in 2008, REIN deepens the Atlanta Fed's knowledge of the regional economy through formal contacts with university researchers throughout the Southeast. That arrangement, the Local Economic Analysis and Research Network (LEARN), is one component of REIN.

In addition, each issue of the Atlanta Fed's quarterly EconSouth magazine highlights REIN's most recent findings.
