New Delhi, July 2
ICICI Bank today said its non-executive chairman KV Kamath has relinquished his position at the bank to take over as the head of the BRICS-promoted New Development Bank (NDB).
"...effective close of business hours on June 30, 2015, KV Kamath, non-executive chairman of the bank, has relinquished office consequent on his nomination and acceptance of full-time executive position based in Shanghai as the President of the New Development Bank," ICICI Bank said.
The bank said it has appointed MK Sharma as non-executive part-time chairman, post RBI approval.
Sharma's appointment is for three years, effective July 1, 2015, it added.
Kamath will be the first head of NDB set up by the BRICS Group of emerging market economies.
