Pedro Sousa Cardoso has stepped down as chief digital officer (CDO) of retail banking and wealth management at UAE-based banking group Emirates NBD.
Cardoso announced his departure via LinkedIn, stating: "After 3.5 incredible years at Emirates NBD Group, it’s time to say farewell."
His post outlines several achievements made during his tenure, such as implementing "a new digital agile operating model", launching "several focused programmes to reclaim market leadership", and creating "a culture of performance, experimentation, and customer obsession".
As part of this culture of experimentation, Cardoso also led Liv Digital Bank, the UAE's first and largest digital bank, launched by Emirates NBD in 2017.
Cardoso originally joined Emirates NBD in 2013 as head of multichannel, CRM and digital transformation, before leaving in 2017 for Standard Chartered, where he served as global head of digital commerce and regional digital head of ASEAN and South Asia. He later returned to Emirates NBD as CDO in 2021.
Cardoso did not disclose his reasons for leaving the group or his career plans going forward. His departure follows Emirates NBD’s recent partnership with US asset management giant BlackRock to develop a new investment platform for its wealth clients, offering access to alternative investments.
