00:05I welcomed the announcement last Friday by the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia
00:09that she had closed the criminal investigation.
00:12She also noted, however, that she would not hesitate to restart the investigation.
00:16I've said that I will not leave the Board until this investigation is well and truly over
00:21with transparency and finality, and I stand by that.
00:25I'm encouraged by recent developments, and I'm watching the remaining steps
00:29in this process carefully.
00:31My decisions on these matters will continue to be guided entirely by what I believe is
00:35in the best interest of the institution and the people we serve.
00:38After my term as chair ends on May 15, I will continue to serve as a governor
00:42for a period of time to be determined.
00:46I plan to keep a low profile as a governor.
00:49There is only ever one chair of the Federal Reserve Board.
00:52When Kevin Warsh is confirmed and sworn in, he will be that chair.
00:56I'm waiting for the investigation to be well and truly over with finality and transparency,
01:02and I'm waiting for that, and I will leave when I think it's appropriate to do so.
01:08I worry that these attacks are battering the institution and putting at risk the thing
01:12that really matters to the public, which is the ability to conduct monetary policy without
01:17taking into consideration political factors.
01:19It is so important for our economy, for the people that we serve, that they can depend
01:23over time on a central bank that operates that way, free of political influence.
01:28It's part of the absolute foundation of this amazing economy that we have.
01:33It's just one of the many reasons why the U.S. economy is the envy of the world.
01:37It is a legend.
