Washington – Treasury Secretary Timothy F. Geithner today announced the designation of Richard L. (Dick) Gregg to serve as Acting
Fiscal Assistant Secretary. Gregg will assume the post on Monday while Kenneth E. Carfine, the current Fiscal Assistant Secretary, is on
extended medical leave.
"Under these difficult personal circumstances and at a time of great challenge in our economy, we are fortunate to have Dick Gregg return
to Treasury," said Secretary Geithner. "Prior to his retirement, Dick had served Treasury with great distinction for 36 years. Dick is well
recognized for his leadership, his transformation of organizations and programs, his commitment to open communication, and a team
approach," added Secretary Geithner.
Prior to his retirement, Gregg was the Commissioner of the Financial Management Service for nine years and before that served as
Commissioner of the Bureau of the Public Debt for 10 years. Gregg also held numerous other management positions at Treasury during
his long career.
The Fiscal Assistant Secretary , who reports to the Under Secretary for Domestic Finance, is responsible for developing policy on
payments, collections, debt financing operations, electronic commerce, government wide accounting, and government investment fund
management. The responsibility also includes managing the government's daily cash position and producing the cash and debt forecasts
used to determine the size and timing of the government's financing operations.
The Fiscal Assistant Secretary also oversees the Financial Management Service and the Bureau of the Public Debt. These Treasury
bureaus provide the financial infrastructure of the Federal government, including payments, collections, cash management, financing,
central accounting, issuance of Treasury securities, and delinquent debt collection.
