Alan Greenspan, former chair of the board of the governors of the Federal Reserve System, died on Monday, according to a statement from his wife Andrea Mitchell, which was reported by NBC News.
”Alan passed away at our home this morning at the age of 100 from complications of Parkinson’s Disease,” Mitchell said in a statement, according to the outlet.
“He was a giant of a man who helped shape the U.S. economy for decades under presidents of both parties, but was always honest in acknowledging his mistakes,” she noted.
