The Zhitong Finance App learned that some media quoted information revealed by people familiar with the matter as reporting that US Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Walsh, who was nominated by Trump and took office after confirmation by the US Senate, proposed the possibility of adjusting the frequency of the Fed's regular monetary policy meetings. People familiar with the matter said that one of the key ideas proposed by Walsh is that Fed policymakers hold FOMC monetary policy meetings in the traditional sense six times a year instead of the current eight FOMC meetings per year to decide the benchmark interest rate and other monetary policy matters, and also hold brief meetings with clear goals twice a year to discuss a substantive economic issue.
