司法部对联邦储备理事丽莎·库克启动刑事调查
摘要
美国司法部针对联邦储备理事丽莎·库克涉嫌抵押贷款欺诈展开刑事调查。
美国司法部已对联邦储备理事丽莎·库克启动刑事调查，重点关注其涉嫌抵押贷款欺诈的指控。此次调查源于联邦住房金融局局长比尔·普尔特的举报，他指控库克将多处房产指定为主要住所，以获得优惠贷款条件。
库克否认有任何不当行为，并已提起诉讼，挑战特朗普总统试图将其免职的行为。她的律师阿比·洛威尔表示：“可以预见的是，鉴于挑战他们非法解雇库克理事的缺陷，政府正急于编造新的理由来为其越权行为辩护。”
此次调查引发了人们对联邦储备独立性的担忧，因为如果库克被免职，特朗普总统将有机会任命新的理事会成员。法律专家警告称，联邦储备的政治化可能削弱其在货币政策管理中的公信力和效能。
随着调查的推进，其结果可能对联邦储备的自主权及更广泛的金融体系产生重大影响。
