The Global Interdependence Center invites you to join us as we honor Charles Plosser, President of the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia, as the 2011 recipient of the Global Citizen Award.
It is our honor to recognize Dr. Plosser for his commitment to encouraging global dialogue and free trade, principles outlined in our Declaration of Interdependence. As a member of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC), he has been intimately involved with making decisions that affect our ever increasingly interdependent global economy. In addition to lending the support of the Philadelphia Federal Reserve to many GIC programs and events, President Plosser continues to support the mission of GIC by serving as a speaker and delegate for numerous GIC conferences domestically and internationally.
