Alliance Bank Malaysia Bhd has appointed Kellee Kam Chee Khiong as its new group chief executive officer, effective from September 1, 2022.
Kam will succeed Joel Kornreich, who will complete his tenure on August 31, 2022.
Chairman Tan Sri Datuk Ahmad Mohd Don said the bank would like to congratulate Kam on his new role as the Group CEO.
Ahmad said Alliance Bank is confident that Kam will be able to lead the bank to greater heights while keeping it safe in the face of any adversities and challenges.
Kam, 48, will join Alliance Bank after stepping down as chairman and independent director of Bank of America Malaysia Bhd, where he has served since 2016.
He has over 23 years of experience in the banking industry, culminating with him serving as the group managing director of the RHB Banking Group from 2011 to 2015.
Meanwhile, Ahmad said the bank also thanked Kornreich for his contribution to Alliance Bank.
“Kornreich has built the Alliance Bank franchise into a progressive and resilient business.
“He has strengthened the risk culture and internal processes and instilled a set of solid corporate values, in particular the Alliance Way principles that have continued to guide us in doing business with integrity and in a sustainable way,” he added. – NST ONLINE
