FACTBOX: Obama adds to cabinet with CIA choice

(Reuters) - U.S. President-elect Barack Obama has chosen Leon Panetta, a former White House chief of staff, to serve as the head of the CIA, Democratic sources said on Monday.

Here are people Obama has chosen for key posts in his administration after he takes office on Jan 20. Most remain subject to Senate confirmation.

Obama still has to name a choice for commerce secretary after New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson on Sunday withdrew, saying an investigation into a company that had done business with the New Mexico state government might delay his confirmation to the post.

SECRETARY OF STATE

* New York Sen. Hillary Clinton, Obama's former Democratic Party rival for the White House, was named to the top diplomatic post. The move is seen as part of Obama's effort to rebuild the United States' reputation abroad. Aides have said Obama admires Clinton's work ethic and also believes the former first lady's star power would boost his vision of improving America's global standing.

SECRETARY OF DEFENSE

* Current Defense Secretary Robert Gates, named by President George W. Bush in late 2006, is considered a moderate voice on the Republican's national security team and embodies an important signal of continuity. Obama had said early on he would include Republicans in his Cabinet and the 65-year-old Gates has been lauded by members of both parties since taking over the Pentagon from Donald Rumsfeld.

TREASURY SECRETARY

* Timothy Geithner, president of the New York Federal Reserve Bank, is Obama's choice for the Treasury Department, making him Obama's point person in dealing with the economic crisis. Geithner has helped lead efforts to stabilize financial markets and argued that banks crucial to the global financial system should operate under a unified regulatory framework.
