The policy orientations and economic perspectives of these new voters will significantly influence U.S. monetary policy, interest rate trends, and global financial markets. This article provides an in-depth look at the backgrounds, policy stances, and potential impacts of the new FOMC members in 2025, aiming to help investors and market participants better understand the direction of the Fed’s decision-making.
