ABN AMRO nominates Christian Bornfeld as new Chief Innovation & Technology
Officer per 1 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 XX 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.
