Inter-American Development Bank President Luis Alberto Moreno made the following announcement to IDB staff today

I would like to inform you that Mr. Daniel Zelikow has tendered his resignation from his position as Executive Vice President of the Bank and informed the Board of Executive Directors in that regard today.

I have asked Julie T. Katzman to serve as interim Executive Vice President while we work to fill the position on a permanent basis. Ms. Katzman will continue to fulfill her duties as General Manager of the Multilateral Investment Fund (MIF).

I would like to thank Mr. Daniel Zelikow for his three years of dedicated service to the Bank, for his support in carrying forward the important agenda of institutional reforms, and for his sustained and systematic efforts to help the institution develop financial and nonfinancial products for its member countries.

I would like to take this opportunity to wish him the very best in his future endeavors.

Luis Alberto Moreno
