 The Governor of the Bank of England, Mervyn King, said “I am delighted that Andrew Bailey is to be the new Deputy Governor with responsibility for the Prudential Regulation Authority. I have worked closely with Andrew over the past ten years, and I know he is the right person to lead the PRA in the years ahead.”
