ANZ Asia Pacific gets new chief risk officer
ANZ has appointed a new chief risk officer for the Asia Pacific region, with Nigel Denby stepping into the role.
Denby was most recently regional head of risk management with Nomura Asia. A statement from ANZ said Denby has spent much of his career with HSBC, where he held senior roles in risk management as well as in the corporate, investment banking and markets divisions.
ANZ chief executive, Asia Pacific, Alex Thursby said Denby’s skills in market and credit risk management and “meeting governance requirements across diverse regions” would mean ANZ’s interests in the region are “well managed”. Thursby said the group’s Asia Pacific business had “grown significantly” in the past six months.
Denby, who will step into the role on November 3, will be based in Hong Kong and will report to ANZ chief risk officer Chris Page and Thursby.
