Dimitar Radev will propose former Prime Minister Rosen Zhelyazkov as deputy governor of the BNB, Focus reported, citing a reliable source.
Now that Andrey Gyurov has become acting prime minister, a new deputy governor of the Bulgarian National Bank must be elected in his place.
What is the procedure?
Deputy governors are proposed by the BNB governor, and then elected by the National Assembly. The mandate is 6 years, with re-election possible.
The proposal of the BNB governor must be submitted to the National Assembly, then considered by a committee (most often - budget), there is a hearing of the candidate and a vote in the hall by a simple majority.
