The Morrison government has appointed Coca-Cola Amatil managing director Alison Watkins and CSL director Carolyn Hewson as members of the Reserve Bank board for a five-year period.
Treasurer Josh Frydenberg said the appointments meant that, for the first time, the central bank has a gender balance on its board. There are now four women on the central bank board.
Alison Watkins said she was “excited by the opportunity to contribute to the important work of the bank, particularly at such a critical time for Australia”.

“It couldn’t be a more important time to be appointed to the central bank,” Mr Frydenberg said.
