TREE NEWS update: Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh said the FOMC’s schedule will change next fall, with six policy-making meetings expected in 2028. Warsh said two meetings that year would not include a vote on the policy rate, and that eight meetings a year is the appropriate number.
Fed Chair Warsh: FOMC Schedule to Change Next Fall, Six Policy Meetings Seen in 2028
A sitting Fed chair publicly reshaping the FOMC's calendar is a governance signal as much as a scheduling one: meeting frequency and voting structure shape how often policy can move and how much information the committee releases to markets. The detail that two 2028 meetings would omit a rate vote is the part worth dwelling on, since it alters the rhythm of decision points rather than just the count. For rate-sensitive corners of crypto and tokenized RWA markets, the practical question is whether fewer voting meetings translate into longer policy holds or simply a different communication cadence. Whether this framing survives internal and congressional scrutiny is the open question.
