Economic Updates

Chief Investment Officer and Economist for Washington Trust Bank, Steve Scranton, will be providing his weekly perspective on important economic issues as we navigate the economy during the COVID-19 outbreak.

Do you want to find out more detail of economic events than what the “headline media” reports? The Economic Update provides commentary and analysis of major economic events that are reported during a month. Typically, there will be commentary on the nation’s economic growth (i.e. GDP report) and the nation’s employment situation (i.e. Employment report), as well as any other major economic events that might occur during the month. The Economic Update subscription is delivered at least monthly.
