Fed Nominee Warsh's Financial Disclosures Reveal Over $100 Million in Assets Amid Confirmation Process
Kevin Warsh, a former Federal Reserve governor nominated by President Trump to lead the central bank, has filed financial disclosures indicating assets exceeding $100 million. The disclosure, necessary for his Senate confirmation, includes significant investments such as over $50 million in the Juggernaut Fund LP and $10.2 million in consulting fees from Stanley Druckenmiller's investment office. Warsh has pledged to divest from these holdings if confirmed. The document, reviewed by the U.S. Office of Government Ethics, also lists various other assets, including interests in artificial intelligence and cryptocurrency sectors, though many values are undisclosed. Warsh's spouse, Jane Lauder, is also noted for her substantial family wealth linked to the Estee Lauder company. The Senate Banking Committee has yet to schedule a hearing for Warsh's confirmation, which is complicated by a DOJ investigation into current Fed Chair Jerome Powell, whose term ends on May 15.
