BOB RUBIN:OUT OF OFFICE BUT IN THE LOOP

摘要

He was there on Sept. 19, when congressional lead-ers clamoring for an emergency rescue package for the reeling U. S. economyrnhuddled with Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan and Treasury Secretary Paul H. O'Neill. He turned up again on Sept. 25, when the Fed chief delivered his latest damage assessment to a closed-door meeting of the Senate Finance Com-mittee. Who is that tall, angular man in the dark suit? None other than former Treasury Secretary Robert E. Rubin. Al-though his day job is chairman of the executive committee at Citigroup Inc., rnhis sideline seems increasingly to be as shadow Treasury Secretary for wary Hill Democrats.
