ING names NZ head


Helen Troup
The head of ING Australia’s life risk business, Helen Troup, has been promoted to the role of chief executive officer of ING New Zealand.
Troup, who is the first Australian to be appointed to head up ING New Zealand, will take up her new role early next month and replaces Marc Lieberman.
Troup will find herself walking into at least some element of controversy, with ING’s decision earlier this year to halt redemptions from two of its funds due to sub-prime exposures having generated numerous complaints to authorities in New Zealand.
Troup joined ING in 2001.
