The World Economic Forum could appoint European Central Bank (ECB) President Christine Lagarde as its next chair as early as November 2, according to Reuters. If appointed, Lagarde could leave the ECB before her term expires in October 2027, which would trigger a major leadership reshuffle at the central bank. Klaas Knot and Pablo Hernández de Cos are reportedly among the leading candidates to replace her. No final decision has been made.
