ANZ Looks forward to a good Expo in 2010

Newly appointed Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Pacific Central Region and General Manager Fiji for the Australia and New Zealand (ANZ) Banking group Norman Wilson said this year their major objective is to market Fiji as a learning and development hub, at the 2010 Expo in Shanghai.
“More than two thirds of our income remain in the country, we at the ANZ genuinely live your world, this is not only words but harsh reality,” he said.
“This is my first role in the Pacific and I believe as a CEO when you’re appointed into a new company, it’s very important to not instantly restructure but to watch and observe for a few months and I love just doing that”.
Dynamics in the region are changing. For ANZ it’s not about being the biggest bank, it’s about being the best.
“Fiji has the highest education standard in the pacific, a good example is Isikeli who used to work for BP now holds a prominent post in Papua New Guinea,” he added.
Wilson is responsible for ANZ operations in Fiji with a staff of approximately 600, which includes Corporate Banking, Commercial Banking, Small Business Banking, Prime Retail and Rural Banking, plus Treasury, Electronic Banking and all operations and support areas. ANZ is the largest bank in Fiji and the wider Pacific operating in 12 different pacific countries.
Originally from Ireland with a genetic history of horse-racing, Wilson aims to breed and own a Horse barn in the not too distant future.
