President Mario Draghi’s farewell event

In keeping with tradition, Draghi bowed out by handing a replica of the ECB president’s golden bell to his successor Lagarde, who will become the bank’s first female president when she takes up the post on November 1.

And finally, President Draghi stressed the ECB’s independence, achievements and focus on its mandate. He expressed his sense of honour for the privilege of having served as ECB President. His goal has always been to comply with the mandate enshrined in the Treaty, pursued in total independence, and carried out through an institution that has developed into a modern central bank capable of managing any challenge.

It has been a privilege and an honour to have the opportunity to do so.
Thank you.
