Le Sénat confirme Kevin Warsh à la présidence de la Réserve fédérale

Le Sénat américain a confirmé mercredi Kevin Warsh au poste de président de la Réserve fédérale pour remplacer Jerome Powell. Ce vote fait suite à une confirmation distincte obtenue mardi pour son rôle de gouverneur de la Fed.

Les législateurs ont approuvé la nomination de Warsh pour un mandat de quatre ans en tant que président et de 14 ans en tant que gouverneur. Les confirmations ont été votées en grande partie selon les lignes partisanes. Warsh était le choix du président Donald Trump pour ce poste.
