March 2018
The Supervisory Board announces that it intends to
appoint Mr Christian Bornfeld (1976) as Member of the Executive
Board and Chief Innovation & Technology Officer of ABN AMRO.
The appointment is subject to approval by the regulators and advice
of the Employee Council.
Mr Bornfeld will join ABN AMRO on 1 December 2017, and
he will start as member of the Executive Board and as Chief
Innovation & Technology Officer effective 1 March
2018.
Mr Johan van Hall, currently Vice-Chairman of the Executive Board
and Chief Innovation & Technology Officer, will hand-over his
remaining tasks beginning 2018 and resign from the Executive Board
effective 1 March 2018.
Ms Olga Zoutendijk, Chairman of the Supervisory Board:
"The Supervisory Board is delighted to nominate Mr Christian
Bornfeld. His strong track record and extensive experience in IT in
the banking sector make him perfectly suited to be appointed to ABN
AMRO as new Chief Innovation & Technology Officer. As
innovation, technology and digitalisation have our utmost strategic
focus, Mr Bornfeld will be appointed at Executive Board
level."
Mr Bornfeld is currently the Chief Operating Officer of
Personal Banking at Nordea, responsible for IT, Operations,
strategic programs and business risk implementation and support.
His responsibilities at Nordea include a leading role in the
digital transformation of Nordea through simplifying products,
processes and IT platforms. He joined Nordea in 2013 as Head of IT
for Retail Banking and subsequently also head of Digital
Banking.
Previously, Mr Bornfeld worked at Danske Bank for
five years as Chief Information Officer of Corporate &
Institutional Banking and Head of IT Strategy, Enterprise
Architecture & Technology Innovation. Prior to joining Danske
Bank, he worked at IBM for eight years in various technology
leadership roles.
The Supervisory Board is grateful to Mr van Hall, who has worked
for 35 years at ABN AMRO, in particular for
his valuable contribution including the integration of two banking
IT platforms and the preparations for the IPO. During his two
consecutive terms as a Managing Board member, Mr van Hall made a
meaningful contribution to the digitalisation of the bank and the
innovation of the IT platforms."
Next step will be submission for approval to the regulators of the
intended appointment of Mr Bornfeld. The Supervisory Board will
convene an Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders (EGM) to
notify the shareholders and depositary receipt holders of the
intended appointment, which will be followed by the formal
appointment decision by the Supervisory Board.
