As ANZ’s new CRO, David Wilson will be responsible for protecting the bank’s balance sheet across 10 Pacific markets, as well as overseeing risk strategies, policies, and processes. Wilson’s career spans 21 years at ANZ holding senior roles, including CRO (PNG), senior manager of group operational risk, and head or risk shared services for Bengaluru.
“I’m pleased to welcome David to the Pacific leadership team,” said Tessa Price, ANZ regional executive for Pacific. “His diverse experience and knowledge of the region will be an asset to our business… I know David will build on the strong, mutually respectful relationships with our regulators to ensure our customers can not only navigate through the pandemic but become successful in the new world.”
Wilson will replace Brent Turner, who will be taking a new opportunity with ANZ in Japan and Korea.
Price thanked Turner “for maintaining [the company’s] strong credit processes and positive relationships with regulators across the region during an unprecedented period.”
Subject to necessary approvals, Wilson will be based in Suva from April.
