Which of the following crises directly led to the creation of the Federal Reserve System in 1913?

WRONG! The Great Depression led to significant reforms in banking and monetary policy, including changes to the Federal Reserve’s role, but it did not lead to its creation. The Federal Reserve had already been established by this time.

WRONG! This earlier financial crisis led to widespread bank failures and a long economic depression, but it did not result in the creation of the Federal Reserve. At that time, the U.S. still had no formal central banking system after the closure of the Second Bank of the United States.

 

CORRECT! The Panic of 1907 was a severe financial crisis caused by the collapse of major trust companies, leading to bank runs and a liquidity crisis. The lack of a central banking system to stabilize the economy during this panic prompted Congress to establish the Federal Reserve in 1913 to manage monetary policy and prevent future crises.

WRONG! While the crash was a key event that exacerbated the Great Depression, leading to major banking reforms, it did not lead to the establishment of the Federal Reserve. The Federal Reserve was created long before, in response to the Panic of 1907.
