Government financial advisor Rudolph Krigger Sr. will retire from public service at the end of the year, according to a statement Tuesday from Government House.
Krigger, assistant to Gov. Charles W. Turnbull for fiscal policy and economic affairs, submitted his resignation in October to be effective Nov. 17. But Turnbull asked him to stay on the job until Dec. 31 to complete certain projects, the statement said.
Turnbull said that Krigger "agreed to assist me at the start of the administration during a very difficult financial period for the territory. He made it clear that he never intended to stay for the entire period of the administration."
Krigger has worked in government for nearly three decades and has served as executive assistant and director of banking and insurance, chief of staff of the V.I. National Guard, and Finance commissioner.
