Langrin Takes Helm at Bank of Jamaica | Jamaica News
Description
Dr. R. Brian Langrin is set to take the helm as Governor of the Bank of Jamaica this Wednesday, succeeding Richard Byles after a global search for the ideal candidate. With over 20 years of central banking expertise—including roles at the IMF and within Jamaica’s own central bank—Langrin brings deep experience in financial stability and economic policy. Minister Fayval Williams praised his diverse background as vital amid global uncertainty, while Langrin himself vows to strengthen monetary resilience, modernize Jamaica’s financial system, and keep inflation under control. Byles’ seven-year tenure saw major milestones: full statutory independence, refined inflation targeting, and the launch of JAM-DEX, positioning Jamaica’s central bank for continued strength in turbulent times.
