Caroline Abel Steps Down After 30 Years | Seychelles News

Caroline Abel, Seychelles’ first female Central Bank governor and a 30-year veteran of the nation’s financial system, has resigned—marking the end of a transformative tenure that spanned economic crises, pandemic recovery, and landmark reforms. Though her exit was rumored as early as 2020 and briefly announced in late 2023, she reversed course after encouragement from key stakeholders and accepted a third term. Now, with her departure scheduled for September 16th, the first deputy governor will assume operations. Abel’s leadership helped stabilize Seychelles post-debt crisis and secured vital IMF support during COVID-19, earning her accolades including “Central Bank Governor of the Year for Africa” in 2020. Her legacy is one of resilience, continuity, and unwavering commitment to the bank’s long-term strength. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
