- Before announcing her departure, Lagarde informed the ECB Governing Council and European Council President António Costa.
- Lagarde’s eight-year term began on November 1, 2019, and would regularly have ended in late October 2027.
- Costa said the succession process would begin on October 29 to ensure a smooth transition.
- Her departure gives the leaders of the 21 euro-area countries an opportunity to settle the succession earlier.
Europe has greatly benefited from her leadership in uncertain times and her unwavering commitment to the European project.— António Costa, President of the European Council, praised Christine Lagarde’s leadership after the announcement of her resignation.
