National Bank's New Appointment: Speedy Decisions or Just a Game of Musical Chairs?
In a swift and somewhat puzzling move, the Austrian National Bank has appointed Thomas Steiner to the Financial Market Authority's supervisory board. Originally, there were different plans, but it seems the decision was made in a game of musical chairs. 'We just kept swapping seats until the music stopped,' said an insider. 'Thomas was the last one standing, so he got the job.' Critics argue that this method might not be the most effective way to fill important positions.
