In a recent appearance on Fox News, macro investor Michael Bessent hinted at a potential willingness to serve at the Federal Reserve — but made it clear his current focus is on pressing issues at the U.S. Treasury.

> “If the country needed me at the Fed, I’d answer the call,” Bessent said. “But let’s be real — there’s a mountain of work to do at Treasury, and that’s where I believe I can make the most impact right now.”

The statement comes amid growing speculation about future appointments at both the Fed and Treasury as the U.S. navigates inflation, interest rates, and mounting debt concerns.

Bessent’s remarks signal confidence in his role shaping economic policy, while also keeping the door open for potential future leadership in central banking.
