Setting aside rife speculations about the change of leadership, ICICI Bank has appointed Sandeep Bakhshi as Wholetime Director and Chief Operating Officer (COO) of the Bank.

 

Bakhshi will report to Chanda Kochhar, MD & CEO of ICICI Bank, who is on leave as a result of an inquiry on loans allocated to Videocon Industries. Bakhshi will be responsible for all the business functions of the bank. In his previously role, Bakhshi was MD & CEO, of ICICI Prudential Life Insurance Company.
