Eurobank appoints experienced executive to board as independent member
Eurobank S.A. has announced that its board of directors had appointed Alexandra Reich as an independent non-executive member, replacing Jawaid Mirza, who has resigned.
The decision was taken at a board meeting held on March 20, 2026, with the resignation of the previous independent non-executive member having been effective since June 27, 2025.
The new appointment will run for the remaining term of office, which is set to expire on July 23, 2027, and will be extended until the conclusion of the period during which the annual general meeting for 2027 is convened.
Alexandra Reich currently serves as a non-executive board member of ING Group and is also a board member of Cellnex Telecom and Delta Fiber.
She brings more than 20 years of international executive leadership experience across telecommunications and technology-driven organisations, the bank stated.
Her previous roles include Chief Executive Officer and senior leadership positions within Telenor Group as well as leadership roles at Swisscom.
In these positions, she led large-scale operational turnarounds, as well as digital and technology transformation programmes and complex organisational restructurings.
These efforts resulted in measurable improvements in performance and shareholder value, according to the bank.
Her experience also spans strategy execution, capital allocation, digital innovation, stakeholder engagement and corporate governance in listed multinational organisations.
With her appointment, female representation on the board is further strengthened, reinforcing the bank’s commitment to diversity.
The bank stated that this aligns with its board diversity policy, which is based on European and Greek legal and regulatory frameworks as well as international corporate governance best practices.
The appointment will be formally presented at the next general meeting of shareholders, which will decide on her definitive appointment for the remainder of the term.
At the same time, the review process by the Single Supervisory Mechanism of the European Central Bank has already been initiated in accordance with the applicable legislative and regulatory framework.
