Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh has appointed two senior Fed economists as
advisers: Daniel Kowitz, one of three deputy directors in the Fed’s Division of
Research and Statistics, and Eric Enstrom, senior deputy director in the
Division of Monetary Affairs. Both are long-serving Fed staffers and will advise
on Warsh’s planned operational reforms. The appointments are among Warsh’s first
personnel moves since taking office last month. The Wall Street Journal reported
he has also hired two conservative policy veterans from outside the Fed and a
former George W. Bush speechwriter.
