US Senate confirms Jerome Powell as next Fed chairman

US Senate confirms Jerome Powell as next Fed chairman

The US Senate has confirmed  the former investment banker Jerome Powell as head of the Federal Reserve, putting President Donald Trump’s pick in a role of enormous influence over the world’s largest economy.

Powell, a current Fed governor, was confirmed by a vote of 85-12, paving the way for him to replace current Chair Janet Yellen when she steps down next month.

In choosing to replace Yellen, Trump dismantled another piece of his predecessor Barack Obama’s legacy, making Trump the first US president in nearly 40 years not to reappoint the incumbent Fed chair.
