Happy to place a bet on some number of resignations.
fed board
the list of resignations over the years are here
From 1913 until the 1930s, the Secretary of the Treasury and the Comptroller of the Currency, who were members ex officio, which gave the president a little more power (and, of course, had been a big selling point of the Fed legislation in Congress, but was removed as soon as possible once the legislation had passed)
There are only 5 board members listed rather than the 7 allowed
Janet L. Yellen, Chair
Stanley Fischer, Vice Chair
Daniel K. Tarullo
Jerome H. Powell
Lael Brainard
According to wiki, the 14 year limit is not set in stone:
Membership is by statute limited in term, and a member that has served for a full 14 year term is not eligible for reappointment. There are numerous occasions where an individual was appointed to serve the remainder of another member's uncompleted term, and has been reappointed to serve a full 14-year term.[4] Since "upon the expiration of their terms of office, members of the Board shall continue to serve until their successors are appointed and have qualified", it is possible for a member to serve for significantly longer than a full term of 14 years. The law provides for the removal of a member of the Board by the President "for cause".
Greenspan for instance was board member and chair from 1987 to 2006.
So are 2 unnamed former board members staying on until they are replaced? Or are there really only 5 board members?
Then we come to the Fed Open Market Committee, which sets monetary policy and has 12 members.
The 7 Fed Governors (or is that only 5 at the moment???)
The NY Fed President is a member
The remaining 4 members are drawn from the 11 remaining regional Fed presidents
wiki
Five of the Federal Reserve Bank presidents serve one-year terms on a rotating basis. The rotating seats are filled from the following four groups of banks, one bank president from each group: Boston, Philadelphia, and Richmond; Cleveland and Chicago; Atlanta, St. Louis, and Dallas; and Minneapolis, Kansas City, and San Francisco. The New York President always has a voting membership
Notice that
All of the Reserve Bank presidents, even those who are not currently voting members of the FOMC, attend Committee meetings, participate in discussions, and contribute to the Committee's assessment of the economy and policy options. The Committee meets eight times a year, approximately once every six weeks.
there's a photo on wiki, and there seem to be an awful lot more than 12, or even 19, people there, so who are the others????
"Modern-day meeting of the Federal Open Market Committee at the Eccles Building, Washington, D.C."
Each of the regional Feds has 9 directors, 6 picked by member banks and 3 by the Fed Board of Governors.
The President of each regional Fed is picked by the directors of that regional Fed, with the approval of the Fed Board of Governors.
