Christine Lagarde could leave ECB early for World Economic Forum chair role
Reuters reports WEF could appoint Lagarde chair as early as November 2, ahead of her ECB term's October 2027 end.
TLDR
Sources cited by Reuters say the World Economic Forum could appoint Christine Lagarde its next chair as early as November 2, before her ECB term ends in October 2027. A forex account says an early departure would bring forward ECB succession and that a hawkish pick like Klaas Knot could lift euro rate expectations. Nothing is decided yet.
