flag Croatia’s central bank chief Boris Vujcic named next ECB vice president, starting June 1, 2026.

flag Eurozone finance ministers have nominated Boris Vujcic, Croatia’s central bank governor, as the next vice president of the European Central Bank, succeeding Spain’s Luis de Guindos. flag The appointment, set to take effect June 1, 2026, marks the first time a leader from a former communist East European country holds the role. flag Vujcic, a moderate hawk with experience guiding Croatia into the eurozone, is seen as a steady, consensus-driven figure. flag The selection reflects efforts to broaden representation, though major eurozone powers still dominate top ECB posts. flag The European Parliament may raise gender representation concerns but lacks power to block the nomination. flag The ECB is expected to keep its key interest rate at 2.0% in 2026 amid resilient growth and stable inflation.
