ECB's Schnabel to leave early for senior IMF role

  • —Schnabel will exit the ECB before her term ends in late 2027
  • —She is set to take a senior IMF role, with an announcement expected soon
  • —Neither the ECB nor the IMF has officially confirmed the move
  • —Schnabel has urged central banks to use DLT and on-chain liquidity
Why it matters: The departure of a key ECB advocate for tokenization could slow the central bank's digital asset agenda.
