Financial services education provider Tribeca Learning has recruited high profile former Deutsche Bank chief economist Don Stammer to chair its board.
Stammer will commence his tenure on January 1 and will take over from incumbent John Fries who will step down to assume the position of deputy.
“The appointments significantly strengthen the board’s financial markets and professional education expertise,” Fries said.
Tribeca has also appointed another independent director – John Hall, who is the current chair of Channel Investor Relations, a financial markets communications firm.
Hall’s appointment is to be effective from the forthcoming annual general meeting.
Howard Woolcott, currently a non-executive director at Tribecca, will leave the board at the up-coming annual general meeting.
Stammer currently chairs ING Management, the responsible entity for three ING property trusts. He is also chairman of Mosaic Oil and of Novera Energy and a non-executive director of ING Private Equity Access.
Stammer retired from Deutsche Bank Australia in July 2001 after 20 years as chief economist and direct of investment strategy for the bank and its predecessor, Bain & Company.
Hall was a chief executive of the Australian Institute of Company Directors for three years until January 2004.
