Isarescu, compatible

The Judicial Committee within the Chamber of Deputies on Monday decided National Bank of Romania’s (NBR) Governor Mugur Isarescu was not in an incompatibility position as stipulated by the Anti-corruption law. The Chamber of Deputies’ legal experts found that the NBR governor, who is also Romania’s governor in the IMF’s Board of Governors, Romania’s alternate governor in the World Bank’s and EBRD’s Board of Governors and a member of the Club of Rome, did not have to choose between being a governor and filling one of these positions.
