Meanwhile, Khoo would step into the role of executive director, cross-industry insights and data, replacing Carmody.
In their new roles, Carmody would assume responsibility for the day-to-day supervision of regulated entities within the general, life and private health insurance industries, while Khoo would oversee a number of APRA’s specialist supervisory teams and drive APRA’s on-going investment in its data and analytical capabilities.

In addition, APRA general counsel, Warren Scott, would be retiring after 13 years at APRA. From 15 April, current general manager, legal, and deputy general counsel, Lucinda McCann, would become APRA general counsel.
Finally, APRA had appointed Sharon Burns as its new chief financial officer. Burns would take up duties in late April.
