ABN AMRO Channel Islands has appointed two new senior members of staff.
Patrick Millar has joined the Dutch bank from Credit Suisse as the head of products and solutions. Mr Millar, who has 25 years’ industry experience, is responsible for delivering a range of banking services, including investments, lending, treasury and dealing.
‘I intend to use the experience I have gained over the last 25 years to deliver first class customer service and help to drive business growth,’ said Mr Millar, 56, who is also the president of the Guernsey branch of the Chartered Institute for Securities and Investment.
‘Key challenges will be regulatory changes, particularly in relation to the European Union, and market volatility. My main aim will be to spot opportunities arising out of these challenges and particularly as a result of Brexit and a fundamental shift away from globalisation.’
Mr Millar, has worked across a range of roles from analyst to senior management. He has degrees in economics and law and has completed an MBA through McMaster University in Canada. He is a private pilot and chairman of the Guernsey Aero Club,
Finance lawyer Elliott Doucy, 37, has joined ABN AMRO as head of legal. Mr Doucy, has 12 years’ legal experience advising financial institutionals, corporates and high net worth individuals. In his new role, he will translate opportunities and risks from a legal perspective to help the bank’s development.
‘My main objective will be assisting the bank from a legal perspective to reduce areas of risk and increase areas of business opportunity as a result of changes in local law and regulation’ he said.
ABN AMRO has recently rebranded as ABN AMRO Channel Islands, following the closure of the Jersey office last year.
‘The integration of the two offices has enabled the bank to further strengthen its combined value proposition to our clients, leverage our scale, create synergies and simplify our governance,’ said ABN AMRO Channel Islands’ managing director, Graham Thoume.
