As of my last update in October 2023, the current Camerlengo of the Holy Roman Church is Cardinal Jean-Claude Hollerich. He was appointed to this position in 2022. The Camerlengo is responsible for the administration of the Vatican City during the sede vacante, the period between the death of a pope and the election of a new one.
