ABA Congratulates Kevin Warsh on Federal Reserve Chair Nomination

“Congratulations to Kevin Warsh on his nomination to serve as the next chair of the Federal Reserve Board. In selecting Warsh, President Trump has chosen an experienced and tested policymaker who previously served at the Fed during one of its most challenging moments. Having worked alongside him in the Bush administration, I know he has a deep understanding of monetary policy, markets and the important role the nation’s banks play in the economy. We look forward to learning more about his current policy views during the confirmation process, and ultimately seeing a smooth transition in Fed leadership.”
