当美联储本周开会决定是加息还是维持利率不变时，所有人的目光都将聚焦在主席凯文·沃什身上。但他仅拥有一票，必须在由其他 11 位做出利率决策的委员中寻求共识。另有 7 位无投票权官员也会发表意见。
When the Federal Reserve meets this week to decide whether to raise interest rates or hold them steady, all eyes will be on Chairman Kevin Warsh. But he is one vote and must find consensus among a committee of 11 others who make rate decisions. Seven nonvoters also weigh in.
他们包括三位银行家、一位对冲基金投资者、一位管理顾问和经济学家——还有一位前美联储主席。
They include three bankers, a hedge-fund investor, a management consultant and economists—plus one former Fed chair.
在 9 月 16 日的上次会议上，他们一致投票决定加息，这是三年来首次加息。特朗普总统一直严厉抱怨加息，他表示沃什正受到敌对董事会的施压而倾向于更高利率。
At their last meeting, on Sept. 16, they voted unanimously to raise rates for the first time in three years. President Trump, who has complained bitterly about rate hikes, has said that Warsh is being pressed toward higher rates by a hostile board.
以下是包括沃什在内的将出席会议的 19 位官员，以及他们近期关于利率的表态。
