Former Deputy Governor at the National Reserve Bank of Tonga Inia Naiyaga has returned to the Reserve Bank of Fiji.
RBF announced his appointment in a statement this week, saying he will assume the role of Senior Advisor to the Governor’s Office, effective last month.
“Apart from his advisory role, Mr. Naiyaga will also have oversight of the Financial Institutions Group; Financial System Development and Compliance Group,” RBF said.
A chartered accountant by profession, Naiyaga has worked on Government Committees regarding national issues like Anti Money Laundering and Y2K, and also held senior offices with the Fiji Institute of Accountants.
Naiyaga joined the Reserve Bank of Fiji in 1974 and has held managerial positions in the Bank as Internal Auditor and Manager Exchange Control.
In 1989, he was promoted to Chief Manager (Exchange Control) and has held a number of senior executive roles since then as Chief Manager (Financial Institutions), General Manager (International) and Senior General Manager (Supervision, Banking and Corporate Services).
He recently returned to RBF after a five year secondment to the National Reserve Bank of Tonga as its Deputy Governor.
