Nigel Baptiste appointed Chairman of Republic Bank (Guyana)
Republic Bank (Guyana) Limited has announced the appointment of Nigel Mark Baptiste as Chairman of its Board of Directors.
Baptiste is currently the Executive Director of Republic Bank Limited, Trinidad.
New Chairman: Nigel Baptiste.
According to the bank, he replaces David Dulal-Whiteway, Republic Bank’s Managing Director, who served as Chairman of the Guyana operations since 2005 and was a Director since 2002. “Mr. Dulal-Whiteway continues to maintain a keen interest in Guyana even as he broadens his focus on advancing the Republic Bank Group’s international expansion.
