Thai panel expects to pick central bank board chair this month after long delayThe selection committee for the chair of the Bank of Thailand expects to pick a candidate at the end of this month, the panel head said on Thursday, after a government effort to appoint a former finance minister failed due to recent political ties.
The role of chair, which is currently vacant, has no direct say in monetary policy but heads the board which picks four members to sit on the central bank's monetary policy committee with the governor and two deputy governors.
