EBRD President Sir Suma Chakrabarti said, “We are very pleased that Annemarie [Straathof] is joining the EBRD. Her very broad experience and outstanding personal qualities will make a crucial contribution to the EBRD as it enters its next five-year strategy cycle.”
Ms Straathof has worked at Rabobank since 1995, with roles in the Netherlands, UK, USA, Indonesia and the Republic of Ireland. She began her career as an options trader in Amsterdam.
Ms Straathof has many years of experience working in risk management internationally. She rose to become Chief Financial & Risk Officer, and Deputy CEO, for Rabobank in Indonesia, and was then appointed Chief Financial Officer Europe in 2014.
