Management Board member Kim Hammonds will be leaving Deutsche Bank (XETRA: DBKGn.DE / NYSE: DB). By mutual agreement with the Supervisory Board her tenure at the bank will end at the Annual General Meeting on May 24, 2018. Ms Hammonds joined Deutsche Bank in 2013 as Co-Head Technology and Operations and was promoted to Group Chief Operating Officer and member of the Management Board in August 2016.
“Kim Hammonds has been a breath of fresh air, bringing an outsider’s perspective with deep experience in transformational change” said Paul Achleitner, Chairman of the Supervisory Board. “She has built the digital, data and security platforms which are strong foundations for our company. We wish her well in her new endeavours.”
Chief Executive Officer Christian Sewing also thanked Hammonds for her service and achievements: “She has hired and promoted outstanding people – we can build on them as we continue modernising the bank’s IT and accelerating digitalisation.”
Kim Hammonds said: “The Global COO team has done an outstanding job running the Bank and has implemented the necessary foundations. I know Deutsche Bank is well on track to regain its position as a leading financial institution. I wish Deutsche Bank every success and I would thank the entire team for working tirelessly to improve our bank.”
A new Group Chief Operating Officer is to be nominated in the near future following consultations with regulators.
