Parliament late Friday approved the appointment of economist and former diplomat Irena Radovic as the new governor of the Central Bank of Montenegro.
A former head of the Balkan country’s Investment-Development Fund, Radovic becomes the first woman to lead the bank regulator and monetary authority. She was backed by 58 lawmakers in Montenegro’s 81-seat assembly in Friday’s vote.
