华盛顿,5月21日(路透社)——特朗普政府周四表示,美国总统唐纳德·特朗普将于周五在白宫为凯文·沃什宣誓就职,使其出任美联储主席。
沃什在5月13日以近乎全党派投票的结果获得该职位确认。他将接替杰罗姆·H·鲍威尔出任美联储主席,不过鲍威尔将继续留在美联储理事会至2028年。

现年56岁的沃什将担任四年的美联储主席任期,以及14年的美联储理事任期。特朗普任命他作为抵御进一步加息的屏障。沃什长期以来一直表示希望降低利率,同时缩减美联储的资产负债表。

他就职之际,其他美联储理事正考虑加息以遏制由特朗普对伊朗战争引发的通胀。根据周三公布的会议纪要,在4月28日至29日的美联储政策会议上,多数政策制定者认为,如果通胀持续 persistently 高于美联储2%的目标,“可能有必要采取一些政策紧缩措施”。

WASHINGTON, May 21 (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump will swear in Kevin Warsh as the chair of the Federal Reserve on Friday at the White House, the Trump administration said on Thursday.
Warsh was confirmed to the role in a nearly party-line vote on May 13. He succeeds Jerome H. Powell as the chair of the central bank, though Powell will remain on the board until 2028.

Warsh, 56, will serve a four-year term as chair and a 14 year term as a Fed governor. Trump selected him as a bulwark against further rate hikes. Warsh has long expressed a desire to lower rates while slashing the Fed’s balance sheet.

He will take office as fellow governors contemplate a rate hike to tame inflation brought on by Trump’s war in Iran. A majority of Fed policymakers at their April 28-29 meeting felt “some policy firming would likely become appropriate” if inflation stays persistently above the central bank’s 2% target, according to minutes of the meeting released Wednesday.
