Strengthening Leadership for BNF Bank’s Next Phase of Growth
By David Power, CEO, BNF Bank
At BNF Bank, we are focused on building a strong, resilient institution that can support customers and meet their needs and expectations.
This requires clear strategy and leadership that is aligned with where the Bank is headed.
That is why I am pleased to welcome two key appointments to our Executive Committee: Stewart Carvil as Chief Banking Officer and Nadia Miceli as Chief Financial Officer.
These appointments form part of a long-term strategy to strengthen the Bank’s leadership capacity as we move from a period of system transformation into one of execution, growth, and innovation.
They reflect decisions taken with the Bank’s long-term direction firmly in mind.
Stewart brings with him over 25 years of international banking experience across corporate finance, capital markets, and strategic advisory.
Having held senior leadership roles at institutions such as SMBC and Lloyds Banking Group, he has led complex financing, syndication, and capital-raising initiatives across multiple markets.
His international perspective, combined with a deep understanding of corporate and institutional banking, will bring a fresh edge to BNF Bank as we seek to broaden our offering and deepen client relationships.
Equally important is the appointment of Nadia Miceli as Chief Financial Officer, a leader who reflects the very DNA of BNF Bank.
Nadia joined the Bank as a student and has progressed through the organisation over the past 16 years, building exceptional institutional knowledge alongside formidable expertise in regulatory finance, capital planning, and financial governance.
Her career is a testament to our belief in developing talent from within and investing in people who understand not just the numbers, but also the responsibilities of banking and the culture we have built over the years at BNF.
She brings continuity, talent, and a deep understanding of the Bank’s strategic priorities at a time when those qualities matter greatly.
As a Bank, we are building far more than new systems or digital channels.
The investments we have made are designed to create the platform for new products that will improve customer experiences.
Strengthening the Executive Committee is an ongoing process.
As BNF continues to evolve, we will keep assessing how best to structure our leadership to support future growth, ensuring the Bank remains fit for purpose not just today, but for the years ahead.
The work of building a strong bank is never finished.
But with the right people, the right systems, and a clear strategic direction, I am confident that BNF Bank is well positioned for its next chapter.
