CNBC Taps Rossell as Chief Economist
By Multi Channel News Staff -- Multichannel News, 8/16/2001 1:02:00 PM
CNBC has appointed Marci Rossell as its chief economist, network executives announced Thursday.
In her role at CNBC, Rossell -- who has been working with OppenheimerFunds Inc. -- will cover all aspects of the economy, including the Federal Reserve Bank and major economic indicators.
Rossell, who begins working at CNBC Sept. 10, will also appear on its Squawk Box franchise, as well as other programs throughout the business day.
She replaces Kathleen Hays, who previously reported on the U.S. economy. Hays is leaving CNBC this week to become an anchor on CNNfn (soon to be renamed CNN Money) and to report on the economy for Cable News Network's Lou Dobbs Moneyline.
At OppenheimerFunds, Rossell served as vice president, corporate economist and investment spokesperson, working closely with portfolio managers and research analysts to develop investment themes and ideas for the company's equity and fixed-income product lines. She also served as spokesperson for the company's investment strategies and market outlook.
Prior to joining OppenheimerFunds, she was a manager for Deloitte & Touche LLP, where she provided economic consulting and expert testimony for clients.
Rossell began her career at the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, where she provided economic analysis of national and local issues to the bank's president.
