Obama taps Nigerian treasury adviser for international economics post




Adewale “Wally” Adeyemo, 34, who served in top roles at the U.S Treasury Department, has been tapped by Pres. Obama to become his deputy national security adviser for international economic affairs. Adeyemo joined the White House’s National Economic Council as deputy director this fall from the Treasury, where he served most recently as the deputy chief of staff.
He was the Treasury’s lead negotiator on the currency agreement that was part of the Pacific trade deal. He also worked on Treasury’s response to crises in Ukraine and Greece and in 2010 was one of the first officials charged with standing up the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
