As a part of this move, the reporting lines of the group’s COO, chief risk officer and group general counsel will transfer from John Williamson to Pradelli.

Williamson said: "Since joining us in June 2012, Giorgio has made a significant contribution to the conclusion of our business review, in particular the strengthening of our capital position and overall risk profile. His promotion to Deputy CEO is well deserved and allows for a clear focus of responsibilities within the executive team to support our objective of controlled, profitable growth."
