Abstract

Central banking functions (technically, the monetary authorities and depository credit intermediation industry) are an important part of the history and economy of northeast Pennsylvania counties (includes Berks, Carbon, Lackawanna, Lehigh, Luzerne, Monroe, Northampton, Pike, and Wayne counties). The industry creates jobs and compensation for workers throughout these counties and influences tax revenues in the counties.

Keywords: Central banking, job creation, tax revenues
