Warren Buffett said Kevin Warsh is the right person to serve as the new chair of the U.S. Federal Reserve, according to CNBC. Buffett said Warsh would do his best to carry out the job’s core mandate: bringing inflation to 2% while maintaining full employment. He also stressed that perfection is unrealistic in a role like this, comparing the challenge to his own experience managing other people’s money and trying to generate excess returns. Buffett added that Warsh cares about the country and said many Federal Reserve officials do as well, even if their decisions are not always perfect. He described Fed policymaking as difficult at times, pointing to the complexity of the role rather than offering any guarantee about policy outcomes. The remarks focused on Warsh’s fitness for the position and Buffett’s view of the demands tied to central bank leadership.
