Bullock was appointed to a five-year term as the central bank’s No. “Bullock will become the first female deputy governor of the RBA in their 62-year history,” Australian Treasurer Josh Frydenberg said in announcing her appointment. “Michele Bullock is a strong appointment,” said John Hawkins, who previously worked at the RBA, Australian Treasury and the Bank for International Settlements.
