EQB Inc. Announces President Changes, Effective August 25, 2025 The Board of Directors of EQB Inc. announced that Chadwick Westlake will be appointed President of EQB, effective August 25, 2025, culminating years-long planning for an accomplished leader to succeed the late Andrew Moor. Mr. Westlake will also serve on the Board of Directors. Marlene Lenarduzzi will remain interim President of EQB until Mr. Westlake joins the company. Mr. Westlake is a dynamic and accomplished bank executive with a proven ability to drive exceptional performance in large, complex organizations, having amassed deep experience in various senior roles. As the former CFO of EQB, his leadership and action helped drive the acquisition and integration of Concentra Bank, the addition of alternative asset manager ACM Advisors and the significant expansion of Equitable Bank's capital markets capabilities and platform, including the development of its now $3.1 billion European covered bond program and its inaugural limited recourse capital note. From 2020 to March 2025 – a formative period in the company's growth trajectory – Mr. Westlake was responsible for EQB's corporate strategy and development, treasury and securitization activities, investor relations, all core finance functions and legal affairs, preparing him to seamlessly assume the CEO role. Prior to EQB, Mr. Westlake held progressively senior roles at Scotiabank over an 18-year period across Canadian Banking, Wealth Management, International Banking, Global Banking & Markets and corporate functions including global risk management, operations and finance, where he last served as Executive Vice President of Enterprise Productivity and Canadian Banking Finance. He was recently named one of Canada's 2025 Best Executives by The Globe and Mail, and will rejoin EQB from OpenText Corporation, where he has served as Executive Vice President & CFO. The Board's unanimous decision to select Mr. Westlake concludes a thoughtful and deliberate process that began several years ago with support from Mr. Moor. A special committee led by Susan Ericksen, Board Director, guided the selection process, which included extensive internal and external candidate assessments with assistance from a global recruitment firm. お知らせ • Jul 09
