Neel Kashkari currently serves as assistant secretary for international economics and development at the Treasury, and in that role, also acts as Senior Advisor to U.S. Treasury Secretary Henry M. Paulson, Jr.

Prior to joining the Treasury Department, Mr. Kashkari was a Vice President at Goldman, Sachs & Co., where he headed Goldman's information technology security investment banking practice in San Francisco. Kashkari has a Bachelor's and Master's degree in engineering from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and an MBA (2002) from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania.,

Kashkari, who is 35, is an Indian-American, from Stow, Ohio where he attended the Stow-Munroe Falls school before transferring to the Western Reserve Academy in Hudson, Ohio from where he graduated in 1991. His parents, Chaman and Sheila Kashkari are from Kashmir, India.

Paulson is expected to name Kashkari to oversee the U.S. government's $700 billion financial stabilization program on October 6, 2008, as the interim head of the new Office of Financial Stability. This is an interim appointment; the permanent head of the Office of Financial Stability will require Senate confirmation, which is unlikely before the November elections.
