President of Poland Andrzej Duda is filing a motion with the Sejm to select Adam Glapiński as the new head of central bank NBP, the chancellery of the president announced on its webpage. Glapiński is a central bank board member and a former member of the Monetary Policy Council (RPP). He also worked as an advisor to late president Lech Kaczyński.
