Plenary to decide on the next director of EU bank watchdog 

On Wednesday, all MEPs will decide whether the French candidate selected to be Executive Director of the European Banking Authority should be appointed.

François-Louis Michaud was selected by the European Banking Authority’s Board of supervisors to serve as the Executive Director, after Gerry Cross, who was previously nominated for this post, was turned down by the European Parliament in January.


Mr Michaud’s appointment was turned down by Parliament’s Economic and Monetary Affairs committee last Thursday. This opinion must now be confirmed or rejected by the plenary.
