National Australia Bank

He joins NAB after six years as CEO and Managing Director of financial services group Perpetual.
The appointment comes on the back of NAB’s announcement it will divest its wealth division by the end of 2019.
In May the bank announced plans to reshape its wealth management portfolio to focus on its core banking operations in Australia and New Zealand.
NAB said Lloyd is a standout leader and the right person to lead the group through the transition, establish a new stand alone business and build it for the future.
