NAB Group CEO, Managing Director To Retire In August

National Australia Bank announces that its long-time CEO is retiring in August and names its subsidiary's chief to take over.
National Australia Bank, the Australian banking giant, has announced the retirement of group chief executive and managing director Cameron Clyne in August 2014.
Clyne has been in this position since January 2009 and says he is stepping down to focus on his family. He will be replaced by Andrew Thorburn effective 1 August, who will also be invited to join the NAB board. This appointment is still subject to regulatory approvals.
Throughout his tenure, Clyne led over 42,000 NAB employees, and is credited for helping the bank stay strong during the global financial crisis. In a statement, he said that he is leaving the company as a "strong, customer-focused bank."
Thorburn was previously the CEO of Bank of New Zealand, a subsidiary of NAB, where he worked since 2008. He also served as an executive general manager for retail banking at NAB for three years. Prior to that, he was group executive, personal customers at St George Bank and held a number of senior roles at the Commonwealth Bank/ASB Bank Group.
His replacement at BNZ will be announced in due course.
