ABN Amro NV plans to cut 60 of its 100 senior management jobs and reduce the number of top executives on its management board by more than half, in a revamp that reflects the bank’s shrinking size. The composition of the remaining 40 executives will be reviewed annually, and the number of executives on the managing board and the senior managing directors will be reduced to nine from 19.

 

“In recent years, the bank’s total staff has decreased significantly, but the size of the senior management level has remained unchanged.” - -  CEO Van Dijkhuizen

 

ABN Amro - 70% owned by the Dutch government following a state rescue - said in November it would cut 1,500 jobs as it steps up cost reductions. The bank employed 26,500 people as of last year and expects its total workforce to decline by 13% by 2020.
