Warsh Sworn In as 17th Fed Chair, With Trump Urging Fed Independence
Kevin Warsh was sworn in as the 17th chairman of the Federal Reserve at a White House ceremony, formally taking charge of the US central bank at a pivotal moment for monetary policy and the economy. President Donald Trump said he wanted Warsh to be totally independent and to do his own thing, while Warsh said he would lead a reform-oriented Federal Reserve and that inflation can be lower and growth strong.
Warsh reached the post after criticism of current Fed officials, a playbook for rate cuts and ties to Trump helped elevate him above other central bank contenders. He now faces immediate scrutiny from bond investors as markets assess how much independence and reform he will bring to the Fed.
