The Fed regional bank's shareholders or member banks are apparently national or state banks, trust companies and like organizations. They hold shares in proportion to their own capitalization. I presume that some may be private, others public but that all carry out financial business other than their participation in the regional Fed bank. At a minimum, wouldn't this raise general questions regarding confidentiality and conflict of interest?

PS: And have you run across any statement regarding the degree of limitation of foreign ownership of the member banks themselves?
