RBA Governor and Deputy Governor -- Some fun facts
By Sophia Rodrigues
Published On 10 Mar 2022 , 05:53 PMI don't think there's as much commonality between a governor and deputy governor as it is between RBA's Governor Philip Lowe and Guy Debelle.
I meant to write about it from so long and didn't realise I'd end up doing so on the day Debelle resigned.
Here it is (some of them are just fun facts):
--Both earned their PhD from Massachusetts Institute of Technology
--They are in the same age group (55-60)
--Neither of them own any real estate other than their own home
--Both have three children
--Their wives share the same first name
--They live in the same suburb in Sydney -- Randwick
(I am sure there are more but this is all what google told me. If any of the above is incorrect, please let me know)
