Fed inspector general finds no criminal wrongdoing in costly HQ renovation overruns

The Federal Reserve's inspector general reported management failures led to major cost overruns in the Fed's headquarters renovation but found no evidence of criminal conduct. This clears former Fed Chair Jerome Powell of allegations of wrongdoing and perjury related to the project. The renovation costs ballooned by about $1 billion due to design changes and unforeseen issues. Fed Chairman Kevin Warsh has pledged to implement the report's recommendations and conduct a full audit, while Powell remains a Fed governor until 2028.

The Federal Reserve's renovation project cost overruns provide context for the Financials sector data on Pluang.
