NEW YORK (Reuters) – Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell mentioned on Wednesday that he by no means seeks to fulfill with any U.S. president and to the extent he has had such a gathering, it is as a result of the elected chief sought the interplay.

“I’ve by no means requested for a gathering with any president and I by no means will,” Powell mentioned at a press convention following the shut of the Fed’s policy-setting committee assembly. “There’s by no means a purpose for me to ask for a gathering, it is all the time been the opposite method.”
