渣打银行首席执行官升任董事长

　　Mervyn Davies， Standard Chartered (StanChart)chief executive， has stepped up to become non-executive chairman in a move which contravenes best practice as set out in the UK's combined code on corporate governance.

　　Bryan Sanderson， 65， is stepping down after four years as chairman to be replaced by Mr Davies， aged 53， who has been chief executive since 2001. Peter Sands， the 44-year-old who has been finance director since 2002， will replace Mr Davies as chief executive.

　　渣打银行的行政总裁戴维斯已升任该银行的非执行主席，此举有违英国“公司治理联合准则”中列举的最佳做法。

　　现年65岁的布赖恩·桑德森将在担任渣打银行主席4年后退任，由53岁的戴维斯接任。戴维斯自2001年以来一直担任渣打的行政总裁。44岁的冼博德将接替戴维斯出任行政总裁，他自2002年开始担任渣打财务董事。
