A former co-CEO of First Republic is said to be in line to be Turkey's next central bank chief. Turkey's central bank is expected to return to more orthodox policies. That's not stopping the Turkish government, which is considering Hafize Gaye Erkan, a former co-CEO of First Republic, to be the next governor of its central bank, according to reports. The bank would ultimately name the chief financial officer, Michael Roffler, to be CEO. Turkey's central bank has been a punching bag for Erdogan, who has forced out its leaders and pressured the bank to slash interest rates even in the face of surging inflation.
