President Joe Biden has appointed Dev Jagadesan as the acting head of the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation, the White House announced.
With all the senior political appointees in key positions leaving office after Donald Trump s term ended Jan. 20, Biden made interim appointments pending the Senate approval of his candidates. Most of them are career employees, rather than political appointees.
An experienced deputy general counsel with a demonstrated history of working in the international trade and development industry, Jagadesan has spent the last two decades with the USIDFC.
He started at the corporation in July 2001 as associate general counsel, and continued to move up the latter with other roles such as acting general counsel, acting chief executive officer and president, and deputy general counsel, according to his LinkedIn profile.
