DUBAI  - The United Arab Emirates president ordered the reshuffle of the central bank's board of directors, state news agency WAM said on Thursday.

The reshuffle follows the appointment of Abdulhamid Saeed as governor in April. Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed al-Nahayan, a member of Abu Dhabi's ruling family and deputy prime minister, was appointed chairman of the board.
