Two out of three Norwegians want Ida Wolden Bache as the new central bank governor, survey shows
Two out of three Norwegians want Ida Wolden Bache as the new governor instead of NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg.
At the same time, more than four out of ten, or 43%, of those surveyed say that they have relatively little or very little confidence in the government’s hiring process, according to a survey conducted by Kantar for TV 2.
One in four, or 25.7%, of those who have an opinion on the matter, say that they want Stoltenberg as central bank governor, while two out of three, or 66.8%, say that they want Bache.
As Stoltenberg was the party leader and prime minister of several people who will now handle his application, there has been a lot of media and accusations from political opponents about camaraderie in connection with the hiring process.
