Her broad management experience in monetary affairs and supervision, as well as her experience in managing specialist departments in the areas of operational risk & IT and financial risk, make her particularly well-suited to this role. As the Executive Board member for Internal Operations and Resolution, she will reinforce the link between DNB’s business units and bring her knowledge of financial institutions and markets to bear on the resolution task.”
