"By means of a letter of 1 December 2011, the European Council consulted with the European Parliament on the appointment of Benoît Coeuré as a member of the Executive Board of the European Central Bank for a term of eight years. The Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs assessed the qualifications of the proposed candidate, particularly in relation to the conditions laid down in Article 286 paragraph 2 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and the requirement for complete independence of the European Central Bank under Article 130 of the Treaty. Within the framework of this review, the candidate presented the Committee with a CV and answers to written questions addressed by the Committee. On the basis of the foregoing, Parliament agreed with the Council’s recommendation to appoint Benoît Coeuré as a member of the Executive Board of the European Central Bank and, at the same time, authorised its President to forward this resolution to the European Council, the Council and Member State governments.
Benoît Coeuré was Head of the Department of multilateral affairs and development at the French treasury in 2007-2009, and for another two years carried out the role of state deputy to the managing director of the French treasury. Among other things, he was Vice-Chair of the G20 working group for reform of the World Bank and other multilateral development banks (2009), and he was also Vice-Chair of the G20 sub-working group on global liquidity management (2011). In 2005, he was nominated for a prize as the leading young French economist."@en1
