Jan 9 (Reuters) - ⁠The ⁠Federal ‍Reserve Board on Friday announced ‍the chairs and vice chairs ​of its 12 ​regional banks for this year, a list that includes Emerson Electric ​Co's chief executive Lal Karsanbhai as ​chair of the St. Louis ‌Fed, and Liberty Mutual Insurance CEO Tim Sweeney ​as deputy ⁠chair of the Boston Fed.

The list ‌also includes former CEOs of other big ‌companies as well as heads of ‌small businesses and non-profits. Fed bank directors meet regularly ‍with Fed policymakers, who say the ⁠boards' views about the economy help inform their own rate-setting perspectives.
