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.
