Central Bank Governor Riad Salameh Leaves Office - Lebanon

File photo dated July 2020 shows a wall in Beirut, with graffitis against the Central Bank governor Riad Salame (or Salameh), as seen in Beirut, Lebanon. Lebanon’s veteran central bank governor leaves office on Monday after 30 years on the job with two international arrest warrants to his name and no designated successor. Riad Salameh, 73, who was appointed governor of the Banque du Liban in 1993, was for years credited with stabilising a battered economy after a 15-year civil war. He outlasted 12 premiers and was once seen as a viable candidate for president. But Salameh’s reputation is now in tatters, dogged by allegations of corruption and financial mismanagement. The Lebanese pound has lost more than 98 per cent of its value against the dollar since 2019, impoverishing three-quarters of the population. Photo by Balkis Press/ABACAPRESS.COM
