The new governor of the Reserve Bank is appearing before Parliament's Finance and Expenditure Committee in her first round of public questioning.

Anna Breman is the first woman to be governor of the RBNZ, starting her five-year term on Monday.

She will be appearing alongside new RBNZ board chairman Rodger Finlay and other senior leaders.

Breman was previously first deputy governor of the Swedish central bank (Riksbank).

She is the RBNZ's first permanent governor since the abrupt resignation of Adrian Orr in March, and replaces Orr's temporary replacement, Christian Hawkesby.
