Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says he will accept the job if President Trump asks him to become the next chair of the Federal Reserve.
Bessent—one of several people who have been floated as possible replacements for current Chair Jerome Powell—told Bloomberg News that he “will do what the president wants” when it comes to the position at the Fed.
He was also quick to add that he is happy in his current position as treasury secretary, The Hill reported.
