The Bank of London has announced a strategic leadership transition as Chris Horne—who has led the institution through a period of stabilisation—moves from his role as Bank CEO to become a Non-Executive Director on the Holding Company Board. His new mandate will focus on steering the Group’s expansion across Europe and the United States, leveraging his extensive background in M&A advisory.
Horne joined Bank of London in January after a stint as the CEO of Credit Suisse’s UK subsidiaries. He left last month and now has a part-time directorate role at the clearing bank’s holding company, according to The Banker.
Horne was installed as CEO after Mangrove Capital Partners seized control of the venture, replacing Stephen Bell just months after he replaced founder and initial chief Anthony Watson.
A spokesperson for Bank of London provided the following statement:
Having led The Bank of London through a period of stabilisation following the change of ownership, Chris Horne has transitioned from Bank CEO to Non-Executive Director of the Holding Company Board, focusing on the Group’s expansion in Europe and the US, drawing on his fifteen years in M&A advisory. Tony Bullman has been appointed CEO of the Bank to lead the next phase of execution under the new ownership and strategy. The Bank has made good progress across its strategic and operational priorities in recent months, and these leadership changes reflect that progress.
The updated leadership structure underscores the bank’s commitment to strengthening its governance foundation and positioning itself for sustainable growth in key international markets.
