ABN Amro chairman of the supervisory board Olga Zoutendijk said: “Mr Abrahams’ strong track record as a CFO and his extensive experience in the financial sector gained in previous senior management positions, including 12 years in banking, make him well-suited to be appointed to ABN AMRO’s Executive Board as new CFO.

“The Supervisory Board is also pleased with the opportunity for the early selection of Ms Cuppen as the new CRO, in anticipation of the scheduled departure of Mr Reehoorn. She has a strong track record in risk management in both the domestic and international banking sector, and more than 22 years of banking experience through the various senior management positions she held at Rabobank.”
