Commission on Money and Credit
A national Commission on Money and Credit (CMC) was established November 21, 1957, by Donald K. David, Chairman of the Committee for Economic Development (CED) to make the first extensive investigation of the U.S. monetary system since the Aldrich Commission of 1908–1911. The report of the commission was published in June 1961 and it was subsequently disbanded.

Goals and structure 

The commission was planned to make the first extensive investigation of the U.S. monetary system since the Aldrich Commission of 1908–1911.  The Commission on Money and Credit would evaluate whether the existing structure of the U.S. financial system and the regulations on various financial institutions were adequate to cope with the anticipated future needs of the U.S. economy.

The Commission on Money and Credit was intended to consist of nine to eighteen members drawn from “business, labor, agriculture, and education, and from fields of research and administration”.  Ten prominent individuals in academia, social science research, and economics, would advise Mr. David on the selection of the members of the commission.

Hyman Philip Minsky 

Hyman P. Minsky, Associate Professor of Economics, The University of California, Berkeley, consulted with the commission, for which he co-authored Private Capital Markets; A Series Of Research Studies Prepared For The Commission On Money And Credit in 1964.
