National Australia Bank has appointed former New South Wales premier Mike Baird as chief customer officer of consumer banking, after Andrew Hagger resigned as the head of consumer banking and wealth. Hagger said he will accept responsibility for the fee-for-no-service scandal that was exposed by the banking royal commission, and fund managers say his position had become untenable following the revelations. Baird, who is currently NAB’s head of corporate and institutional banking, is now regarded as a leading contender to eventually succeed CEO Andrew Thorburn.
