Trump to Swear In Warsh as Fed Chair on Friday, White House Says

Kevin Warsh will be sworn in as Federal Reserve chair by President Donald Trump on Friday during a ceremony at the White House, an official said.

Warsh will become the central bank’s 17th leader and succeed Jerome Powell, who is serving in a temporary capacity after his official leadership term ended last week. A White House official confirmed the plans on condition of anonymity before it was formally announced.
