One of Australia’s most influential economists, Bill Evans, said Michele Bullock is the right person to drive changes as head of the Reserve Bank after her adept handling during recent months in the No. 2 position.

“It’s a quality appointment,” he said on Bloomberg TV Friday. “We’re in store for someone who’s courageous, someone who will be very well trained and going to provide the stability that’s needed to move the Reserve Bank to its next stage.”
