On January 30, 2026, President Donald Trump officially nominated former Federal Reserve Governor Kevin Warsh to succeed Jerome Powell as the next Chair of the Federal Reserve. If confirmed by the Senate, Warsh is expected to take office in mid-May 2026, marking a potential "regime change" in how the central bank operates. 

2026 Monetary Policy Outlook 
Warsh's outlook for 2026 is characterized by a "cyclically dovish but structurally hawkish" approach. While he has historically been an inflation hawk, his recent stance aligns with the administration's desire for lower borrowing costs. 
Aggressive Rate Cuts: Warsh has recently criticized the Fed for being "backward-looking" and too slow to ease policy. Analysts expect him to push for deeper rate cuts in 2026 than the 50 basis points currently priced into markets.
AI-Driven Productivity: A core tenet of his outlook is that an AI-led productivity boom will allow for higher economic growth without triggering a surge in inflation.
Balance Sheet Reduction: Warsh is a vocal critic of the Fed's "bloated" balance sheet. He advocates for a "radical transformation" to shrink it significantly, arguing that a smaller footprint would reduce market distortions and improve policy clarity.
Reduced Forward Guidance: He has expressed skepticism toward the Fed's reliance on extensive "forward guidance" and model-driven forecasting, preferring a less predictable but more rule-based communication strategy. 

Strategic & Regulatory Shifts
Beyond interest rates, Warsh’s leadership is expected to prioritize structural reform and deregulation: 
Financial Deregulation: He is likely to support plans to reduce headcount in the Fed’s oversight divisions and ease bank capital and liquidity requirements, which he believes currently force banks to hold excessive reserves.
Treasury Coordination: He has proposed a new "Treasury–Fed accord" to coordinate balance sheet reduction and debt management more closely with the executive branch.
Ceding Regulatory Power: Warsh has suggested the Fed should cede some of its banking supervision authority to the Treasury Department, challenging the traditional independence of the Fed as a regulator. 

Confirmation Hurdles
Despite broad Republican support, Warsh faces an immediate obstacle in the Senate Banking Committee. Senator Thom Tillis (R-NC) has stated he will block the nomination until a Department of Justice investigation into outgoing Chair Powell's 2025 testimony is resolved. Without Tillis's support, the nomination may struggle to reach the full Senate floor for a vote.
