ICBC appoints new CEO
The Insurance Corp. of B.C. has appointed a new boss.
David Wong has been appointed ICBC’s president and CEO, announced the corporation’s board of directors on Friday.
Wong takes over from interim CEO Phil Leong, who assumed the top job after former president Nicolas Jimenez left in February to head up B.C. Ferries.
Wong, a chartered professional accountant, comes to ICBC from B.C. Hydro where he had served in a variety of senior roles including, most recently, chief financial officer.
In that role, Wong was responsible for financial oversight, company-wide procurement, materials and fleet management, technology solutions and cybersecurity, said the ICBC board.
