ECB's Lagarde determined to complete her term, spokesperson says

FRANKFURT (Reuters) -Christine Lagarde is determined to complete her eight-year term as president of the European Central Bank, the ECB said on Wednesday after the Financial Times reported that she held talks about leaving early to lead the World Economic Forum. The newspaper said Lagarde, who still has more than two years left in her mandate, has held talks about taking over as head of the WEF for years and last met former WEF President Klaus Schwab in April to discuss a succession plan. Schwab was quoted as saying Lagarde, who is on the WEF's board of trustees, was at the centre of their succession plan and they had discussed timelines and even practical arrangements, including accommodation for Lagarde.
