Biography

Tabaković holds a master's degree in economics from the University of Priština and a PhD in economics.[2] In 1992, she joined the Serbian Radical Party and represented the party in the Parliament as a member. After the 1997 elections, the radicals joined a new Serbian government in 1998, with the Socialist Party of Serbia and JUL. That same year, she became Minister of Ownership and Economic Transformation.[3]

In May 2008, at early parliamentary elections, she was re-elected as a member of Parliament. In September 2008, after the split of party, she joined the Serbian Progressive Party led by Tomislav Nikolić, and became a member of the parliamentary group "Let's Get Serbia Moving."[citation needed]

Following the resignation of previous Governor Šoškić over disagreement with adopted amendments to the NBS Law, President of Serbia Tomislav Nikolić proposed Tabaković to the post,[4] and she was elected as the Governor of National Bank of Serbia on 6 August 2012.[5] She lives in Novi Sad, having resided in Priština until 1999.[citation needed]
