LONDON, March 10 (Reuters) - HSBC has named former
Citigroup banker James Forese to its board as a
non-executive director, Europe's biggest bank said on Tuesday.
Forese, who left Citi, where he headed its institutional
clients group, in April last year, will join HSBC on May 1.
His appointment comes as HSBC Chairman Mark Tucker is on the
hunt for a new Chief Executive for the bank, with current
interim CEO Noel Quinn hoping to fend off external candidates.
