Kevin Warsh was appointed as the new Chair of the Federal Reserve (FED) in June 2026, succeeding the previous leadership. This leadership change occurred amid policy debates and criticism regarding the existing interest rate policy and the tenure of Jerome Powell. Warsh has since been involved in decisions made by the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC).
