The keys: Pablo Hernández de Cos, someone special and capable of generating consensus

Pablo Hernández de Cos is a contender to become the next President of the European Central Bank, along with Klaas Knot. He has received public support from Alberto Núñez Feijóo, which strengthens his position. Hernández de Cos is considered one of the favourites for the role, which would be a good appointment for the ECB due to his experience and knowledge.

His designation could help balance the internal tendencies of the council, as its vice-president Boris Vujcic is seen as a hawk. Christine Lagarde will be leaving the ECB.
