Krungsri senior exec appointed MUFG executive officer
Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group (MUFG), Japan’s largest financial group and one of the world’s largest financial groups, has appointed Krungsri chief strategy officer Pairote Cheunkrut as MUFG executive officer.
MUFG said Pairote has been leading Krungsri’s corporate strategy and business planning, and his extensive experience spanned 25 years across multiple fields in retail finance. He has held senior positions in various organisations including Krungsri Auto and GE Capital Auto Lease Plc.
The company said he is among the Krungsri leaders who played a crucial role in driving the bank to become one of Thailand’s Domestic Systemically Important Banks (D-SIBs).
In this new role as MUFG executive officer, Pairote will continue to serve as the chief strategy officer for Krungsri, strengthening synergies between the two financial groups through knowledge and best practice sharing in order to achieve sustainable business growth, the company said.
