OLB appoints Chris Eggert to the Management Board as Chief Risk Officer

The Supervisory Board of Oldenburgische Landesbank AG (“OLB”) has appointed Chris Eggert to the Bank’s Management Board. Subject to the approval of the supervisory authorities, the 49-year-old executive will assume responsibility for Credit Risk Management, Risk Controlling, and Restructuring as Chief Risk Officer (CRO) as of June 1, 2022. Chris Eggert currently heads OLB’s Credit Risk Management functions as General Manager.

“We are pleased to be able to appoint someone from the Bank’s own ranks as Chief Risk Officer. Chris Eggert is a proven expert in risk management who knows OLB and its customers extremely well and has demonstrated his competence in many years of successful work for the Bank. In his new position, he will play a key role in shaping OLB’s growth-oriented business model,” says Axel Bartsch, Chairman of OLB’s Supervisory Board.

Chris Eggert has around 25 years of experience in bank risk management. Since 2010, he has held various management positions at KBC Bank Deutschland AG (later Bremer Kreditbank AG; BKB), which merged with OLB as BKB in 2018. Prior to that, he held various positions in the areas of Corporate Banking and Structured Finance at Danske Bank A/S as well as Berenberg Bank in Hamburg, among others. Chris Eggert began his professional career in 1993 at Deutsche Bank AG in Lübeck with a training as a bank clerk and studied economics afterwards.

“I very much welcome the Supervisory Board’s decision to appoint Chris Eggert to OLB’s Management Board. He has been closely connected to OLB for many years and has played a key role in shaping the Bank’s risk management during this time. I have come to know Chris Eggert as an excellent leader, and I am pleased that he will now bring his many years of knowledge of OLB and his high level of professional expertise to the Management Board,” says Stefan Barth, Chairman of OLB’s Management Board.

With the expansion of the Management Board, OLB’s management team will be composed of six members as of June 1, 2022: Stefan Barth as Chairman of the Management Board, Board members Marc Ampaw, Aytac Aydin, Chris Eggert and Dr Rainer Polster, as well as General Manager Giacomo Petrobelli.
