Christine Lagarde could be appointed president of the World Economic Forum (WEF) as early as November, according to sources cited by Reuters. The decision could lead to her early departure as head of the European Central Bank (ECB), where her term officially ends in October 2027.

The WEF board of trustees, which includes Lagarde, will meet on November 2 and could decide the organization’s future president then. The appointment could be officially announced at the annual meeting in Davos. The sources said Lagarde has the support of board members, but the final decision has not been made. The WEF and the ECB declined to comment on the information.

An early departure would allow European Union leaders to choose a new ECB president before France’s presidential election, scheduled for next spring. According to the sources, Lagarde would like to give President Emmanuel Macron a role in selecting her successor.

The ECB is already facing other changes. Isabel Schnabel will leave the Executive Board in January 2027 to join the IMF, while chief economist Philip Lane is due to retire in May. Among the favorites to lead the ECB are Klaas Knot and Pablo Hernández de Cos, while France and Germany are seeking other key positions.

Context: Christine Lagarde a respins anterior ideea unei plecări anticipate de la BCE, în timp ce discuțiile despre succesiune se intensifică

Christine Lagarde a declarat anterior că nu intenționează să plece anticipat de la conducerea Băncii Centrale Europene, iar mandatul său se încheie oficial în octombrie 2027. În același timp, ea a redus speculațiile privind o posibilă candidatură la președinția Franței, spunând că nu ar fi o idee bună să candideze anul viitor.

În paralel, discuțiile despre conducerea BCE au fost alimentate de anunțul că Isabel Schnabel va părăsi Comitetul Executiv în ianuarie 2027 pentru a se alătura FMI. Lagarde a mai atras atenția asupra contextului economic din Franța, inclusiv asupra nivelului datoriei publice, cerând un plan credibil de reducere și reforme.

Totodată, Lagarde a pledat pentru o abordare de politică monetară „de la o ședință la alta”, explicând că scumpirea energiei nu duce automat la majorarea dobânzilor și că BCE își bazează deciziile pe evaluarea efectelor asupra creșterii și consumului, menținând ținta de inflație de 2% pe termen mediu.
