Nomination hearing for Kevin Warsh for Fed Chair has been delayed, according to NY Post
- A new date for his hearing has not yet been scheduled, the source said, as the Senate Banking Committee is still waiting to receive Warsh’s paperwork.
- Hearing was initially set for April 16th.
- It’s a “paperwork issue” similar to one that Securities and Exchange Commission Chair Paul Atkins encountered, since both Atkins and Warsh have particularly complex financial disclosures due to their high net worths, the source said.
