ANZ’s Matos era to begin with a letter from Elliott
When the bank’s new boss opens the top drawer of his desk on Monday morning, he’ll find a letter from his predecessor, before starting meetings and visits.
When Nuno Matos, ANZ’s new chief executive, takes a seat at his desk on Monday morning, in his new office on the 10th floor of the bank’s Melbourne Docklands HQ, and opens the top drawer, he’ll find a letter from Shayne Elliott.
Reading it – and perhaps glancing out his window to the banks of the Yarra River, and Port Phillip Bay in the distance, to reflect on the messages – Elliott hopes Matos, unfamiliar with the peculiarities of Australian banking, will see his arrival in its historical context.
