The program is expected to feature financial market analysis, roundtable discussions on the policies affecting both the domestic and global economies and news-making interviews with business influencers across the world. Kudlow will also serve as a contributor offering expert economic and financial analysis across all Fox News Media platforms.

“I am thrilled to be part of this new venture at FBN and for the opportunity to really drill down on the most pressing economic issues impacting everyday Americans,” Kudlow said.

On a daily basis, Kudlow will examine the headlines and business trends, with an emphasis on the financial impact facing households and businesses across the country.

Kudlow helped build a variety of President Trump’s economic, tax and trade initiatives during his time as economic policy and director of the National Economic Council. As an assistant to the president, he coordinated the administration’s domestic and economic policy agenda.

He was also instrumental in helping guide the CARES Act [Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security], along with Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, which delivered financial relief to millions of businesses and individual Americans.
