The General Council of the Riksbank decided at its meeting on 10 June to extend Deputy Governor Per Jansson’s mandate as member of the Executive Board for a further five years. Per Jansson’s mandate will therefore run until 31 December 2021.

“During his time on the Executive Board, Per Jansson has contributed to developing the work on both monetary policy and financial stability. We are therefore very pleased that Per Jansson has agreed to stand for re-election for a further period. This contributes to continuity,” say General Council Chairperson Susanne Eberstein and Vice Chairperson Michael Lundholm.

“It is a great privilege to be a member of the Executive Board of the Riksbank. The period 2012-2016 has been very exciting, challenging and instructive. I look forward to continuing to contribute to the development of the Riksbank's work for a further five years,” says Per Jansson.
