Twenty-four leaders from banking, industry, academia, entertainment and other disciplines were named as chairs or deputy chairs of the 12 Federal Reserve Banks Wednesday, with 11 of the leaders renamed to continuing roles in leading their regional banks.
In a release, the Federal Reserve said the designations for the leadership of the 12 regional banks are for the balance of 2019.
