European Central Bank Governing Council member Olli Rehn is seeking a second seven-year term as the governor of Finland’s central bank.

“I have enough energy and motivation to continue working as the governor of the Bank of Finland, if I am elected, and to weigh in at the ECB Governing Council,” Rehn said in an emailed response to questions, confirming a report by STT news agency earlier on Friday. The current stint of the 62-year-old, a former European Union commissioner, runs until July 12, 2025.
