## Bio

Born in Paris in 1956, Lagarde trained as a lawyer and joined Baker & McKenzie in 1981, working in labour law and mergers. She climbed to chair of the firm by 1999 - the first woman to hold the role - and stayed until 2004, when she left for government. Appointed France's Minister of Foreign Trade in 2005, she moved through agriculture to land the finance portfolio in 2007, becoming the first woman to run an economy ministry in any G8 nation. She managed France's response to the financial crisis, earning praise as the best finance minister in the eurozone. In 2011 she was elected to lead the IMF, serving two terms until 2019. A French court convicted her of negligence in 2016 over a state arbitration case, though no penalty was imposed. She took the ECB presidency that same year her second IMF term ended.
