Rod Carr returns to banking
Banking veteran Carr was the Reserve Bank’s deputy governor from July 1998 to July 2003, and held the role of acting governor for about five months in 2002 when Don Brash left the central bank to become a National MP.
Carr is familiar with high-profile banking roles. He spent 11 years in commercial banking including, including a spell as a senior executive at National Australia Bank in Melbourne.
Carr rejoined and chaired RBNZ between 2013 and September 2016, when he was replaced by incumbent Neil Quigley. At the time, reports suggested Carr had an interest in the governor role full-time.
Carr has been a vice-chancellor at the University of Canterbury since February 2009 but will retire in January next year, ASB said.
