Olli Rehn took another step on a path to succeed Erkki Liikanen as governor of Finland’s central bank.

The parliamentary supervisory council, which oversees the Bank of Finland, unanimously agreed to put Rehn’s name forward, according to a press release on Friday. The government will next review the proposal before deciding on whom to recommend for the job. Ultimately, the appointment is made by President Sauli Niinisto.
