Which of these is a banking activity of the Fed?

Answer
p
printing money
r
regulating securities markets

storing money for banks

Explanation

The Fed acts as a bank for commercial banks, including holding reserves and providing services such as processing payments. So storing money for banks is a banking activity of the Fed. Printing money is handled by the U.S. Treasury, while securities regulation and funding government programs are not the Fed’s banking role.
