NBER is one of the most influential economic research institutions in the world. It plays a key role in the U.S. economy by providing data, analysis, and recommendations that inform economic policy. NBER’s research is regularly cited by policymakers, government agencies, and financial institutions, and it is widely respected for its rigorous, data-driven approach to economic questions.

NBER’s business cycle dating committee is particularly well-known for its work in identifying the official start and end dates of U.S. recessions. This data is relied upon by government agencies, financial analysts, and economists worldwide to understand the state of the U.S. economy.
