Martin Schlegel (born 20. August 1976)[3] is a Swiss economist and Vice-Chairman of the Governing Board of the Swiss National Bank (SNB).[2]

Life[edit]

Martin Schlegel studied economics at the University of Zurich and completed his studies in 2003 with a master's degree.[2][4] Subsequently, he joined the Research Unit at the SNB followed by positions in the SNB's Financial Market Analysis and Money Market units. While working, he obtained a doctorate in economics from the University of Basel in 2009.[2] Since 2010, he has been an Adjunct Professor at the University of Basel.[5] In the years 2015 and 2016 Schlegel also worked as an expert for the International Monetary Fund.[5]

After a proposal from the SNB's Bank Council, Schlegel was appointed as an Alternate member of the SNB's Governing Board by the Swiss Federal Council in June 2018.[4][6] In May 2022, the Federal Council appointed Schlegel as the Vice-Chairman of the Governing Board of the Swiss National Bank. This also made him Head of Department II of the SNB.[1][7] Later that year he was a speaker at the Forum for Financial Market Stability held by the Financial Market Authority Liechtenstein.[8]

In an interview in October 2023 Schlegel, talking about the Acquisition of Credit Suisse by UBS, said: "We don't have a mandate to rescue a bank."[9]
