CONSTRUCTION SECTOR – THE MINNEAPOLIS FED SURVEY
The Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis continues to track the pandemic’s effect on the construction sector, a bellwether for the broader Ninth District economy, which includes Minnesota, the Dakotas, Montana, western Wisconsin and Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. We are partnering with construction/trade groups to collect feedback from you and other firms in the construction sector.
Please take this 5-minute survey to help the Minneapolis Fed and President Neel Kashkari better understand current business conditions for your firm.
All responses are anonymous. To maintain anonymity, please do not include any self-identifying information in comments. If you receive a survey alert from multiple partners, please only respond to the survey once.
Your input will help the Federal Reserve System shape monetary policy to help businesses thrive in these challenging conditions. We will also share findings in a timely fashion with partnering organizations (that sent you this survey) so survey results can be shared with you as well.
The Minneapolis Fed greatly appreciates your time and insights, and wishes you and your business good fortune in the coming months.
