Her tenure is unlikely to be much quieter than her predecessors’. The hope is that it is a little longer

best economists in the world have served as chief economist of the World Bank. But not all of them stay for long. Paul Romer, who subsequently won a Nobel prize, left after 15 months. His successor, Penny Goldberg, returned to academia just as quickly. And a new layer of management is soon to be inserted between the research department and the bank’s president. It was not obvious, therefore, that the bank would find another chief economist as illustrious as past holders of the post.

Ms Reinhart’s best known work is her history of financial folly written with Kenneth Rogoff of Harvard, which spans eight centuries . The book drew on a variety of historical sources, including prices culled from monastery records, and reports from the League of Nations, which her husband, Vincent, who was then working at the Federal Reserve, gave her as a Valentine’s gift.

Her concern overlaps with Mr Malpass’s preoccupations. In his previous job at America’s Treasury, he voiced concerns that China was drawing countries into debt and thereby expanding its geopolitical influence. In his current role, he has insisted that countries should be more transparent about their lending and borrowing.
