Capital Group, the world's largest global active investment manager, has announced the appointment of Guillermo Veiga as Chief Information Officer. He will join the firm in November, succeeding Marta Zarraga, who is set to retire at the end of the year.
Veiga will relocate to California from Singapore, where he currently serves as Group Chief Information and Operations Officer at Standard Chartered Bank.
'Technology, data and AI play an increasingly important role in how we deliver investment excellence, serve clients globally and scale our business,' said Rob Klausner, Chief Operating Officer at Capital Group. 'Guillermo brings a rare combination of deep technology expertise, operational leadership and global transformation experience. His track record leading large, complex organizations makes him the right leader to help advance Capital's long-term strategy and position us for the opportunities ahead.'
Born in Uruguay and raised in Spain, Veiga began his career as a hands-on technologist and has since held senior leadership roles across Europe and Asia at Amazon Web Services, Cisco and Banco Santander, combining deep technical fluency with strong operating experience.
'I was drawn by Capital Group's long-term commitment to its people and culture paired with its client-centric mindset,' said Veiga. 'Capital is on the cutting edge of technology, and the opportunity to help lead during a period of global expansion for the company, amid the growing ability of data and AI to transform ways of working, is exciting.'
