Today, ABN AMRO announced that its Supervisory Board will appoint Michiel Lap as Chair of the Supervisory Board of ABN AMRO Bank N.V. with effect from the closure of the Annual General Meeting on 22 April 2026.

Michiel Lap will succeed Tom de Swaan, who will retire as Chair after almost eight years.

Furthermore, ABN AMRO announced the nomination of Jean-Pierre Mustier to its Supervisory Board for a four-year term. The nomination is subject to the approval of the European Central Bank.

As current Vice-Chair and a Supervisory Board member since 2019, Michiel Lap has developed extensive knowledge of ABN AMRO and of what is needed from the ABN AMRO Supervisory Board to successfully fulfill its role as a strong and constructive counterpart to the ABN AMRO Executive Board. His appointment will provide continuity and stability within the Supervisory Board, ensuring effective governance as we move forward in this crucial phase of ABN AMRO’s new strategic direction.

Michiel Lap commented:

“I am very honoured to assume the role of Chair from Tom de Swaan, who has fulfilled this role so admirably over the last eight years. His are big shoes to fill, but I am looking forward to helping the bank maintain its current momentum.”

Jean-Pierre Mustier is a seasoned international banker, executive and supervisory board member. He currently serves on the supervisory board of Deutsche Börse and was previously CEO and Chair of the French IT company Atos (2023-2025) and CEO of the Italian bank UniCredit (2016-2021).

Jean-Pierre Mustier commented:

“I am honoured to have been invited to join the ABN AMRO Supervisory Board. The bank’s recently announced new strategy is ambitious and forward-looking. I look forward to working closely with my fellow board members and with the ABN AMRO Executive Board.”

Michiel Lap’s appointment as Chair will be effective from the closure of the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (AGM) on 22 April 2026. The proposed appointment of Jean-Pierre Mustier will be on the agenda of the AGM.
