ZURICH, June 26 (Reuters) – The Swiss National Bank’s next chairman will be Martin Schlegel, the government said on Wednesday, replacing long-serving boss Thomas Jordan when he steps down at the end of September.
Schlegel, who is currently SNB vice-chairman, will take up the role for the remainder of Jordan’s term, which runs until 2027.
The 47-year-old had been widely seen as the most likely candidate both inside and outside the central bank, where he started his career in 2004 and was promoted to vice chairman in August 2022.
