Clarien Bank has announced that Duncan Card will join its Board of Directors, following the retirement of James Gibbons. Card, who brings a wealth of experience from the regional financial sector and a strong track record in corporate governance, is expected to help steer the bank through its next phase of growth.

Gibbons, a long‑time director of Clarien Group Limited, will remain on the parent company’s board, ensuring continuity for the bank’s strategic initiatives. The appointment comes at a time when Bermuda’s banking industry is focusing on strengthening resilience, embracing digital transformation, and expanding services to meet the needs of both local and international clients.

“Card’s expertise in risk management and sustainable finance will be invaluable as we continue to support the island’s economic diversification,” said a Clarien spokesperson. The bank’s leadership has highlighted the importance of maintaining a robust governance framework amid evolving regulatory expectations.

With Card’s addition, Clarien reaffirms its commitment to maintaining high standards of stewardship and accountability. The move is seen as a positive step for the broader financial community in Bermuda, signalling a continued emphasis on local talent and strategic oversight.

As the bank looks ahead, stakeholders anticipate that the new board composition will reinforce Clarien’s position as a trusted financial partner for businesses and residents throughout the island.
