Ladislav Kamenický graduated from the University of Economics in Bratislava. In 2012 he became an MP of the National Council of Slovakia. As an MP, is seen as polite and staunchly loyal to the leadership of Smer-SD's Chairman and Kamenický's personal friend Robert Fico . In 2019 he became the Minister of Finance, filling the seat emptied after the previous minister Peter Kažimír became the Central Bank Governor. The choice of Kamenický was seen as a compromise between various factions of Smer-SD. After the defeat of SMER-SD in the 2020 Slovak parliamentary election, Kamenický returned to the parliament.
