PRMIA Announces New Directors
PRMIA is pleased to announce the results of this year's Board election, which concluded on October 30. The three nominees who received the highest number of votes from PRMIA members are:
Carol Alexander
Chair of Financial Risk Management at the ICMA Centre, Henley Business School at Reading
Chair of the PRMIA Academic Advisory Council
Bud Haslett
Head of Risk Management, Derivatives and Alternative Investments for the CFA Institute, New York
Colin Lawrence
Director, Prudential Risk Division, Financial Services Authority
PRMIA Steering Committee, London Chapter
These new Directors were among a roster of ten strong and well-qualified candidates from around the world which prompted PRMIA members to vote in record numbers. They will replace outgoing Directors Mark Abbott, Christian Jimenez and Alexander Shipilov.
Geoff Kates, PRMIA Chairman, notes, "I am delighted to see such high caliber candidates joining the Board and would like to congratulate them on their election. They are the first of a new generation of volunteer leaders ready to help PRMIA shape the future of the profession. We had for this election a very strong roster of candidates showing the wide support that PRMIA now holds. I would also like to thank the outgoing directors for their service to PRMIA since the time the organization was founded."
Steve Lindo, PRMIA Executive Director adds, "I am delighted to have Carol, Bud and Colin join PRMIA's Board at this crucial time in the development of the risk profession. Each one of them brings a unique set of skills and experience to PRMIA's leadership, together with a common passion for the advancement of risk management and for PRMIA's commitment to the highest standards globally. I'm also looking forward to working with the other nominees as they pursue leadership roles in other areas of PRMIA's activities."
On behalf of PRMIA's volunteer leaders and staff, Geoff and Steve wish to thank the members who voted in this year's election for their strong and active support of PRMIA.
