President Joe Biden has nominated three smart, diverse candidates to fill vacancies on the Federal Reserve Board of Governors. Predictably, Republicans are already complaining about their views, particularly those of Sarah Bloom Raskin, the nominee for vice-chair of supervision, who has expressed concern about the effects of climate change on financial stability and has an interest in the risks posed by shadow banking, cryptocurrencies and cyber security. Conservatives say her appointment would “politicise bank supervision”.
美國(guó)總統(tǒng)喬?拜登(Joe Biden)提名了三位精明、多元化的人選,填補(bǔ)美國(guó)聯(lián)邦儲(chǔ)備委員會(huì)(Federal Reserve Board of Governors)的空缺。毫不意外的是,共和黨人已經(jīng)在對(duì)這些人選的觀點(diǎn)表達(dá)抱怨,特別是對(duì)負(fù)責(zé)金融監(jiān)管的副主席的提名人選薩拉?布盧姆?拉斯金(Sarah Bloom Raskin),她對(duì)氣候變化對(duì)金融穩(wěn)定的影響表達(dá)了擔(dān)憂,并且關(guān)注影子銀行、加密貨幣和網(wǎng)絡(luò)安全帶來(lái)的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。保守派表示,她的任命將會(huì)“把銀行監(jiān)管政治化”。
