Royal Bank of Canada Appoints Katherine Gibson as Permanent CFO

By Adriano Marchese

 

Royal Bank of Canada has appointed Katherine Gibson as chief financial officer on a permanent basis, effective immediately.

Gibson has been serving in the role of interim CFO since April 5, when the Canadian bank terminated Nadine Ahn's employment after an investigation found Ahn had an undisclosed relationship with an employee that led to preferential treatment.

She has been with the bank for 22 years and has garnered extensive experience leading global teams and strategic initiatives, RBC said Thursday. Prior to the interim role, she was senior vice president of enterprise finance and controller with global responsibility for head office finance.

Her other prior roles included senior VP of wealth management, investor and treasury services and insurance finance and VP of enterprise optimization.
