The Malta Development Bank (MDB) has announced that Alison Micallef has taken on the duties and responsibilities of the CEO role to ensure continuity in the bank’s leadership until further notice.
The news comes as Paul V. Azzopardi retired from the position of CEO. He led the institution for five years – two as Deputy CEO and three as CEO.
According to her LinkedIn profile, Ms Micallef began her career at APS Bank, where she spent seven years as a supervisor. In 2005, she moved to Vienna to join Raiffeisen Bank International AG, also for a seven-year stint.
She then took on the role of Head of Risk Management at Western Union, again based in Vienna, where she remained for three years.
In 2017, she joined Finastra as a Solution Architect, and in 2020 she took up the position of Deputy Chief Risk Officer at Santander Consumer Bank Österreich.
