Former Federal Reserve Chair Alan Greenspan died on June 22 at age 100. NBC earlier reported his death citing a statement from his wife, Andrea Mitchell, and the Federal Reserve later confirmed it, saying the 13th chairman led the U.S. central bank from 1987 to 2006 through periods of economic expansion and stress while helping deliver sustained price stability. Greenspan was long seen as one of the most influential central bankers of his era, though critics later linked his deregulatory approach and low-rate policies to vulnerabilities exposed in the 2008 financial crisis.
