UK's Javid says no need to extend Carney's term at Bank of England - Bloomberg

(Reuters) - Britain's ruling Conservative Party sees no need to extend Mark Carney's term as Bank of England governor, finance minister Sajid Javid said in an interview.

Javid said his party would appoint a new governor of the bank "very, very quickly" if it wins a parliamentary election on Dec. 12, he told Bloomberg in an interview.

Reuters reported last month that the government would not name a successor to Carney before the election.

Carney, is due to leave the central bank on Jan. 31, which is also the latest deadline for Britain to leave the European Union.
