Politics will decide ouster of Polish central banker, even harshest critics admit
politico.eu/article/politics-not-merit-will-decide-polish-central-bankers-ousting-harshest-critics-admit/
Quick Glance: Motion to Bring Polish Central Bank Chief Before Tribunal
- Polish lawmakers will submit a motion to bring the central bank chief before the State Tribunal, as part of a broader effort by the government to hold accountable those accused of wrongdoing.
- Governor Adam Glapinski is accused of lacking independence from the previous government, breaking constitutional rules, and misleading the finance ministry about the bank's financial results. The process to remove Glapinski could be lengthy, as the motion must be investigated by a parliamentary commission before going to a full chamber vote.
- Christine Lagarde, head of the European Central Bank, warned Glapinski in a letter that any such move could be referred to the EU's top court as it might impact the central bank's independence.
- Glapinski defends his work, emphasizing that quantitative easing was crucial to save the largest economy in the east of the European Union during the pandemic. Investigations could start in April, after an Easter break, according to deputy head of the commission, Dariusz Jonski.
