Under the arrangement, Bisignano will report directly to Bessent and will be tasked with running the agency’s daily operations, while at the same time continuing his responsibilities at the Social Security Administration. Bessent himself will remain commissioner of the IRS, despite earlier expectations that his leadership would be temporary, CNBC reported earlier in the day. According to the news channel, President Donald Trump ultimately decided that he wanted Bessent to retain oversight of the agency. Bessent assumed the role in August after Trump dismissed Billy Long just two months into his tenure. Long has since been appointed by the White House to serve as US ambassador to Iceland. Before joining the government, Frank Bisignano had a long career in the private sector. Most recently, he served as president and CEO of Fiserv, a global leader in payments and financial technology. In 2019, as head of the financial services company First Data, he orchestrated its merger with Fiserv and subsequently led the combined company.
