Gurov and Chobanov were nominated by the newly elected governor of the Bulgarian Natipnal Bank Dimitar Radev almost immediately after he was voted in for a second term as BNB governor. Chobanov will be taking over the banking department, and Gurov – the issue department. The 148 votes in favour of the two nominations came from GERB, We Continue the Change/Democratic Bulgaria and the Movement for Rights and Freedoms. Vazrazhdane and There Is Such a People voted against, the Bulgarian Socialist Party abstained.
