Among those also attending are Mario Draghi, governor of the Italy's central bank, Canada's Mark Carney, Japan's Masaaki Shirakawa, France's Christian Noyer and the European Central Bank's Jean-Claude Trichet.
Also present will be the heads of the Fed's regional banks, as well as a number of notable economists.
Absentees will include Bank of England deputy governor Charlie Bean, who usually attends, but this year is sending one of the BoE's leading economists in his place.
It will not all be hard work, however, as the meeting, which has taken place every year since 1978 and is hosted by Kansas Fed president Thomas Koenig, also allows the world's leading economic brains to share some free time together. Potential activities include hikes and fishing trips around Wyoming's Grand Teton national park.
Another key topic will be the future of the dollar as the world's reserve currency, following a number of high-profile comments this week against it.
