ANZ Institutional has appointed two key roles in its international division, strengthening its leadership outside the bank’s home markets.

The institutional bank has named Rufus Pinto as Country Head, India, only a week after naming Ranjit Roy the head of its Middle East operations.

Both will report to Vishnu Shahaney, Head of South East Asia, India and the Middle East and Country Head Singapore.

Shahaney said the appointments reflect ANZ’s ongoing investment in its international presence, and show the bank is confident in the global outlook as markets emerge from the pandemic-led downturn.

“ANZ is committed to its international presence, which plays a critical role in helping our institutional customers move goods and capital around the region,” he said.

Roy, who has been with ANZ for 10 years, will keep his role as Head of Financial Institutions, Middle East. Pinto has been with ANZ since 2011 and is currently Country Head, Philippines.

ANZ Managing Director, International, Simon Ireland, said the appointments are critical given the importance of both the Indian and Middle-East markets to ANZ’s operations.

“Ranjit’s deep knowledge of the Middle East and the financial institutions sector will be key as our customers look to navigate the global economy as it emerges from the pandemic,” he said.

“In addition, our customers in India have significant investment and trade interests in South East Asia, therefore our international footprint means ANZ is well positioned to support their growth across the region.”

He said Pinto’s appointment is recognition of the opportunities the bank sees in India.

“We see enormous opportunity in India amid the strong economic recovery currently underway, and the upward trajectory in bilateral trade between Australia and India,” Ireland said.
