Kevin Warsh's wealth revealed

Warsh's financial disclosures make him one of the wealthiest individuals ever nominated to lead the central bank, far outstripping the assets of his predecessor Jerome Powell.

To comply with ethics rules, Warsh has pledged to divest a substantial portion of his holdings and resign from several corporate boards if confirmed.

His ties to the tech sector and his early investments in crypto platforms are expected to be a major focus of questioning by the Senate Banking Committee.

The hearing, tentatively scheduled for next week, will scrutinize whether his vast personal wealth could influence his approach to monetary policy and regulation.
