Export Import Commercial Joint Stock Bank (Eximbank EIB) has released two announcements regarding senior personnel.
Firstly, Eximbank’s Board of directors (BOD) assigned Tran Tan Loc deputy general director to concurrently be in charge of company governing at Eximbank according to Eximbank’s BOD Resolution no.237/2020/EIB/NQ-HDQT dated April 22nd 2020.
This is another surprising information regarding high-level; personnel at the bank which has experienced a lot of changes in the top management over the past year.
Secondly, Eximbank announced the reception and appointment of La Quang Trung as Chief Accountant from May 4th 2020. This is also a surprising announcement because on February 27th, the bank already announced the reception of Trung as the Chief Accountant with appointment period of 12 months, including six months of challenge.
Before the bank’s Annual general Meeting (AGM) which was supposed to be held on March 5th but then postponed, Eximbank also appointed Nguyen Quang Thong to be the vice Chair of BOD.
Eximbank’s Chair is currently Cao Xuan Ninh, and Acting general director is Nguyen Canh Vinh. In particular, Vinh has been acting as the general director for a full year but the bank has not yet made a decision to appoint Vinh as the general director (usually within three months after waiting for the approval of the State Bank of Vietnam (SBV)).
The BOD Chair position of Ninh has also experienced three changes in the past year. The position was shifted from Le Minh Quoc to Luong Thi Cam Tu and then Cao Xuan Ninh. When he first took office in June last year, Ninh was believed to have submitted his resignation after only one month in the hot seat but has not been approved yet.
The Legal Representative position is also vacant at Eximbank. At the same time, the bank has not successfully managed the 2019 AGM due to the lack of consensus in the major shareholder groups.
