Washington DC, July 27: The International Monetary Fund (IMF) intends to choose another pioneer to replace Christine Lagarde at the worldwide crisis specialist by Oct 4, the IMF board reported on Friday. That would mean another overseeing executive will be set up in time for the IMF yearly gathering in mid-October.
Lagarde surrendered her post compelling Sept 12 as she anticipates last word on her designation to the administration of the European Central Bank.
Any of the reserve’s 189 individuals can choose an up-and-comer from July 29 to Sept 6, after which the board will declare its waitlist of up to three names, the IMF said in an announcement. EU pioneers early this month picked Lagarde to succeed ECB boss Mario Draghi, whose single, eight-year term finishes in November.
Lagarde quickly ventured away from the IMF authority post she has held since 2011, starting a rush of theory about who might supplant her.
