Finance Minister Israel Katz: "I welcome the government's decision to approve the appointment of CPA Yahli Rotenberg to the position of Accountant General at the Ministry of Finance. In recent weeks, I have been fighting to have the appointment approved by the government due to its importance for the proper management of the state budget and the representation of the State of Israel before important economic entities in the world, and I am glad that today the effort has borne fruit." "CPA Yahli Rotenberg is a first-rate professional, with creative thinking and deep familiarity with the Ministry of Finance and the Israeli economy. "After having served with distinction in a series of positions in the ministry, I am convinced that together we can advance the policy that I am leading in the ministry, to ensure the strength and stability of the Israeli economy, while demonstrating solidarity and social sensitivity towards business owners, the self-employed and salaried workers during the economic crisis. I wish Yahli success in fulfilling his role and am convinced that he will cope optimally with the many challenges facing the Ministry of Finance in general and in the role of Accountant General in particular.",
