The Reserve Bank (RBNZ) has confirmed Rodger Finlay as Chairman of its board, and also appointed Rhiannon McKinnon to its board.
Finlay has been "exercising the functions" of the Chairman since previous Chairman Neil Quigley resigned in August.
Prior to that Finlay was Deputy Chairman. He is a former investment banker and fund manager and director or trustee of several entities including Rural Equities Ltd. He's also a fellow of Chartered Accountants ANZ.
McKinnon is the former CEO of Kiwi Wealth, founder of executive coaching firm Cassiobury, and board member of the NZ Film Commission, CFA Society of NZ, and Dress for Success Wellington. She's also a Chartered Financial Analyst.
"The past year has seen wide-ranging change for the Reserve Bank and I look forward to supporting a renewed focus on effectively and efficiently delivering the Bank’s economic, financial stability, and broader central banking objectives. I am also looking forward to working with our incoming Governor, Dr Anna Breman," Finlay says.
Breman starts on Monday.
Finlay will serve as Chairman until the end of his current term on 30 June 2027. McKinnon will serve a five-year term from 1 December this year until 30 November 2030.
