<p>Mr Stoltenberg’s tenure at Nato ends later this year.</p>
<p>Norway’s government announced his appointment at the central bank in a statement and said it hopes he can start in his new role around December 1.</p>
<p>The current governor of Norges Bank, 70-year-old Oystein Olsen, is retiring this year after holding the position since January 1 2011, for two terms.</p>
<p>Mr Stoltenberg, 62, was Norway’s finance minister from 1996 to 2000, and prime minister from 2000 to 2001 and again from 2005 until 2013.</p>
<p><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>He had previously said if he got the central bank governor position, he would not be able to start before leaving his Nato job on October 1.</p>
<p>He became Nato secretary-general in 2014.</p>
<p>After a successful first term, his mandate at the trans-Atlantic alliance was extended.</p>
<p>Mr Stoltenberg has been praised for steering Nato through a difficult period under the Trump administration, when the US threatened not to come to the aid of member countries that were not spending enough on defence.</p>
