Peru's President-Elect to Reappoint Central Bank Chief

 　　Peruvian President-elect Ollanta Humala says he will reappoint Julio Velarde as central bank chief, in an apparent signal to investors¹ that the country's current economic policies will continue.

　　President-elect Humala made the comment in an interview Sunday on local television.  He is expected to name his Cabinet on Wednesday and takes office July 28.

　　Mr. Humala was elected this past June in a runoff, defeating Keiko Fujimori, the daughter of imprisoned² former president Alberto Fujimori.  Much of the campaign focused on continuing Peru's rapid economic growth of recent years, while ensuring that the poor also see some of that increased prosperity.

　　Mr. Humala first ran for president five years ago but was defeated by current President Alan Garcia.  Back in 2006, Mr. Humala opposed a free trade agreement with the United States and pledged to limit foreign investment in Peru.  Mr. Humala has since moderated his political discourse³, and reports say he has pledged to follow Brazil's market-friendly model.
