09/03/2022 - ABN Amro Bank NV: ABN AMRO announces Supervisory Board nominations

ABN AMRO Bank N.V. announces today that its Supervisory Board proposes to re-appoint Tom de Swaan as a member to the Supervisory Board for a period of four years. Upon re-appointment of Tom de Swaan as member by the General Meeting on 20 April 2022, the Supervisory Board will re-appoint him as chair of the Supervisory Board.

Tom de Swaan has been a member and chair of the Supervisory Board of ABN AMRO since 2018. He is nominated for re-appointment on the basis of his extensive knowledge and experience as a senior executive and non-executive board member, nationally and internationally, both in the financial sector and elsewhere, and the competent way in which he chaired the Supervisory Board in recent years.

The Supervisory Board also proposes to appoint Sarah Russell as a new member, replacing Tjalling Tiemstra. Since Tjalling Tiemstra is not available for a new term, there is a vacancy within the Supervisory Board for a financial expert. Sarah Russell has worked in various managerial and board positions in financial services, accounting, asset management and risk management, including at ABN AMRO, Nordea, APG and Aegon. The proposed appointment of Sarah Russell is subject to approval by the European Central Bank.

Tom de Swaan, chair of the Supervisory Board: 'We are very pleased to nominate Sarah Russell for the Supervisory Board of ABN AMRO. With her extensive knowledge and experience in the financial sector, in executive as well as non-executive positions, she will be able to make a valuable contribution to the Supervisory Board of ABN AMRO. We thank Tjalling Tiemstra for his significant contribution to the Supervisory Board in the past six years. With his broad and in-depth experience of accountancy, he has been of great value to the Supervisory Board.'

The convocation and meeting documents for the General Meeting of 20 April 2022 will be posted
