Global experience in broad-based financial services

Former St George Bank chief executive Paul Fegan has joined Genworth Australia as its new chief financial officer.

Mr Fegan - whose appointment took effect on January 7 - was most recently at AMP where he has been a non-executive director since 2009, and was appointed chairman of the audit committee in 2010.

In 2011, he was also group managing director, strategy and corporate services, for Telstra Corporation.

Prior to joining St George in 2002, where he helped oversee the bank's merger with Westpac in 2008, he worked at NAB for more than 20 years, holding various divisional and senior leadership roles in Australia, the United States, Hong Kong and the UK.

 
 

According to Genworth, he has more than 30 years of global experience in broad-based financial services and "deep experience in finance, capital management, corporate strategy, sales and in leading customer-facing businesses".

"Paul brings with him strong leadership expertise, financial acumen and a market reputation that will be invaluable as we continue our efforts to deliver on our strategic priorities as well as our commitments to our customers and shareholders," said Ellie Comerford, Genworth Australia's president and chief executive.
