Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said on Wednesday he will stay on as a central bank governor when his leadership term ends next month.

“After my term as chair ends on May 15, I will continue to serve as a governor for a period of time to be determined. I plan to keep a low profile as a governor,” Powell said in a press conference following the latest Federal Open Market Committee meeting.
