BBVA reshuffles leadership team
Spain's Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria BBVA.MC said on Wednesday it had reshuffled its leadership team and streamlined its organisation as it seeks to drive transformation amid the growing impact of artificial intelligence on its business and customer experience.
The Spanish lender said the reorganisation was also designed to simplify reporting lines, with new executives drawn from within the group and several top managers leaving their executive roles.
