Mark Carney has been named as the new Bank of England governor, who will replace outgoing head Sir Mervyn King.
The role of the governor is the most important unelected position in Britain, and is chosen by the Government.
Mr Carney, a Canadian national, will take up his role on June 30 next year.
He was appointed governor of the Bank of Canada in early 2008, for a term of seven years.
According to Bloomberg, Mr Carney said he did not formally apply for the role - indicating he was headhunted by Britain for the job.
Sky's Economic Editor Ed Conway said: "This is a real surprise for the City.
"He will serve a five-year term rather than the eight-year term originally advertised.
"We don't know the future of current deputy governor Paul Tucker, who has been heading towards this role all his career."
Mr Carney was born in Fort Smith, in Canada's Northwest Territories, and received a bachelor's degree in economics from Harvard University in 1988.
He received a master's degree in economics in 1993 and a doctorate in economics in 1995, both from Oxford University.
A father-of-four, his wife is a British national and his children all hold dual nationality.
Announcing the choice to the House of Commons, Mr Osborne said he would apply for British citizenship.
Prior to joining the Canadian civil service, Mr Carney had a 13-year career with investment bank Goldman Sachs in its London, Tokyo, New York and Toronto.
Mr Carney was appointed deputy governor of the Bank of Canada in August, 2003.
