Serbian Finance Minister Resigns Citing Personal Reasons

Serbian Finance Minister Dusan Vujovic filed his resignation on Monday, saying that the four years he spent in the government is "quite enough for a man to prove himself in a public office". 

Serbian media have widely speculated that Vujovic will be replaced by the current mayor of Belgrade, Sinisa Mali, who is leaving his position after being caught up in several scandals.

Vujovic's political career began in 1974 as an assistant in the Institute for International Politics and Commerce in Belgrade.

He has worked in numerous institutions in the former Yugoslavia but also for the World Bank.

In April 2014, on the proposal of the Main Board of the Progressive Party, he was elected Minister of Commerce. In August that year, he switched to the Finance Ministry.

He is not a member of any party.
