STOCKHOLM: Swedish Central Bank Deputy Governor Barbro Wickman-Parak is to step down in May when her period of office expires, the bank said on Monday.
Wickman-Parak, 66, one of the four members of the six-member board who are seen as being more hawkish, said in a statement she felt she did not want to stand again due to her age.
There was no mention in the statement of the future of another deputy governor, Lars Svensson, whose term expires at the same time.
He is one of the two doves on the board and has criticised the fact that the bank has undershot its 2 percent inflation target.
