The European Central Bank (ECB) announced today that it has appointed Roberto Schiavi, 48, as Director General Budget and Finance. He will take up his new role on 1 March 2016 and will report to Michael Diemer, Chief Services Officer.

Michael Diemer, Chief Services Officer, said: “Roberto has dedicated an important part of his professional life to the ECB. His range of experience in different managerial positions will be of great value in the set up and management of the new Directorate General Budget and Finance and I look forward to working closely with him to ensure the ECB is run efficiently and effectively.”
