NEW YORK — President-elect Donald Trump on Thursday named Dina Powell, a Goldman Sachs executive who served in the George W. Bush administration, to a senior White House role, making Powell the latest alum of the prestigious bank to join Trump's team.

Powell has been advising Trump's daughter, Ivanka, but in her new position she will be an assistant to Trump and senior counselor for economic initiatives. She will focus on “entrepreneurship, small business growth and the global economic empowerment of women,” according to a statement from Trump's office.

“I am proud to have her serve as a senior counselor in my administration, where I know she will produce great results working with the highly respected team of experts we have assembled,” Trump said.
