The Governor, Michele Bullock, today welcomed the appointment by the Treasurer of Andrew Hauser to the position of Deputy Governor of the Reserve Bank of Australia and as a member of the Reserve Bank Board.
Andrew Hauser has been with the Bank of England for over 30 years and brings considerable experience to the position of Deputy Governor. He is currently the Executive Director for Markets, where he oversees all aspects of the design and execution of balance sheet and financial market operations; manages the UK’s official foreign exchange reserves; and coordinates market intelligence and analytical advice to the Bank of England’s monetary and macro-prudential policy committees. He has held senior roles across most of the Bank of England’s other major functions, including leading its Inflation Report, its international economic analysis and its regional agencies’ intelligence gathering.
Ms Bullock said: ‘I warmly congratulate Andrew on his appointment as the Deputy Governor of the Reserve Bank and look forward to working with him. He has great experience and will bring a welcome external perspective to the Bank and the Reserve Bank Board.’
On his appointment, Andrew Hauser said: ‘I am deeply honoured to be asked to serve as the RBA’s next Deputy Governor. I look forward to working closely with Michele Bullock, her senior team and the talented staff of the RBA to serve the Australian people, and to help make a reality of the recommendations of the RBA Review.’
Andrew Hauser will take up his new role in Australia in early 2024.
