Africa-Press – Tanzania. <\/strong><\/span>ABSA Group appointed Saviour Chibiya as Group Executive, Absa Regional Operations who will be responsible together with retail business banking and corporate and investment banking, for the Group\u2019s ARO businesses and strategy, collaboration and relationships with its key stakeholders across those businesses.<\/p>\n

Mr Chibiya will be a member of the Group Executive Committee and will thus provide input in terms of the Group\u2019s strategy overall and in particular the strategic choices for Absa\u2019s growth in the ARO banks and will support and enable the Managing Directors in the countries in their strategic delivery. He will report directly to the Group Chief Executive.<\/p>\n

\u201cChibiya is a seasoned banker with deep institutional knowledge of the Group, as well extensive and diversified banking experience, at both country and regional level across the continent,\u201d said Jason Quinn, interim Chief Executive for Absa Group.<\/p>\n

He joined the Group in 2010 as Managing Director and CEO of Barclays Bank Zambia Plc, after nearly two decades at Citibank.<\/p>\n

In 2017, he joined the ARO leadership team as Regional Managing Director, assuming increasingly pan-African regional responsibilities.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are proud that this appointment is drawn from within our leadership structures. Saviour\u2019s experience will contribute immensely to the strength and diversity of our executive leadership team and we are excited about the perspectives that he will bring,\u201d Jason added.<\/p>\n

On his part Mr Chibiya said, \u201cOur strong franchise across ARO is critical to the future growth of Absa Group. In most of the countries in which we operate, we are among the top financial services providers and we have strengthened this position through innovative product and service offerings catering to both our local customers and global clients,\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI am excited to be embarking on this journey, and look forward to collaborating with colleagues, customers, regulators and the communities in which we operate to bring Africa\u2019s possibilities to life,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
