Bloomberg reported, citing people familiar with the discussions, that officials are weighing whether Williams should leave in June 2027, when he turns 65, or remain until June 2028, after 10 years as New York Fed president.

The later date depends on an interpretation that could let Williams complete a decade in the role; the earlier one would make his 65th birthday the endpoint.

The discussions have yet to establish when he will leave.
