Goldman Sacs marking a presence in MN. [View all]

"On Tuesday, Neel Kashkari, the former head of Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP), was named the next president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis. Kashkari will assume office in January. His position also grants him a seat on the central most committee in the Federal Reserve system, the Federal Open Market Committee, which directs US monetary policy.
As noted by government watchdog group Little Sis, Kashkari’s appointment means that the last three Federal Reserve appointments are Goldman Sachs alumni and Goldman Sachs alumni now lead four out of the 12 branches of the Federal Reserve."
