Summary: Some new details about Mr. Campinos, who is Battistelli's successor at the EPO

Some interesting snippets of information about the earlier career of Mr. Campinos have emerged from a curriculum vitae in Spanish obtained from the website of the University of Alicante.



It turns out that after completion of his master's studies at the Faculty of Law at the University of Montepellier in France in 1994, his professional career began as a legal advisor with the Portuguese bank Banco Caixa Geral de Depósitos, and its subsidiary Caixa Geral de Aposentações, where he worked from 1995 to 1998.

We shall soon start part 2 of this series. Stay tuned.
