ROYAL BANK OF CANADA (Toronto: RY-PC.TO - news)
Canada's largest bank said its chief executive Gordon Nixon will retire effective Aug. 1, after 13 years at the helm of the bank. Nixon will be succeeded by Dave McKay, group head of the lender's personal & commercial banking arm.
The Swiss bank has chosen operations chief Ulrich Koerner to run the bank's asset management arm when its head retires next year, an appointment that suggests a restructuring of the business may be on the cards.

Credit Suisse said its Chief Risk Officer Tobias Guldimann will leave the bank at the end of the year instead of taking over a newly created role inside the bank, confirming information obtained by Reuters.
