Earlier this week, the Center for Audit Quality announced that Citigroup’s Julie Bell Lindsay will become the organization’s new executive director effective May 6, 2019. Lindsay succeeds Cindy Fornelli, who announced her retirement in September. Fornelli will stay on board with the CAQ through May to support the leadership transition.

Lindsay served as managing director and deputy head for global regulatory affairs at Citigroup. She developed and executed Citigroup’s regulatory policy priorities and strategic efforts, and engaged with various parties such as regulators, trade organizations, and international standards setters.
