The latest moves among senior wealth management figures in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

Financial Conduct Authority
The UK's Financial Conduct Authority has appointed two new non-executive directors to join its board: Jeannette Lichner and Bernadette Conroy. They will each serve three-year terms beginning on 1 April 2020 and 1 August 2020, respectively.

The appointees are joining following Amelia Fletcher and Catherine Bradley stepping down as their NED terms conclude, the FCA said in a statement yesterday.

Conroy has senior manager and non-executive experience in both public and private sector organisations, including financial services. Her current roles include chairing a housing association and being a NED for Community Health Partnerships. Lichner, who has a background in international financial services, has had senior leadership posts in a number of major financial organisations, including her present role as a NED at Miller Insurance Services. Both women have confirmed that they have not engaged in any political activity in the last 5 years.

Amelia Fletcher will step down as a NED of the Payment Systems Regulator. Nick Stace, who was appointed in April 2017, has also stepped down from the FCA and PSR Boards, as of 29 January 2020.

The current FCA chief executive Andrew Bailey will stand down from both the FCA and PSR Boards on 15 March, the regulator said.
