Fallen into economics by chance, Marianne Collin has been passionate about economic policy since her first application to UNamur. Her meeting with Luc Coene, former Governor of the National Bank, marked the start of her career: she remained with this institution for 13 years before joining Belfius at the request of Marc Raisière, Chairman of the Management Committee.
