Veteran banker Vaswani assumed charge as the managing director (MD) and CEO of the bank on January 1, 2024. He had worked with Barclays and Citigroup previously.

Ashok Vaswani, Managing Director & CEO of the bank, has informed the board that, for personal reasons, he does not wish to seek re-appointment upon completion of his current term on December 31, 2026, Kotak Mahindra Bank said in a regulatory filing.

The bank said the review, announced on March 24, examined whether any concerns flagged by Chakraborty were evident from the records, whether he had recorded any dissent during his tenure, and whether such dissent, if any, had been addressed.

Chakraborty resigned as chairman of the country's second biggest lender, HDFC Bank, citing ethical concerns. This was the first time that a part-time chairman of HDFC Bank left mid-way, raising concerns over its functioning.

The company added that it has the right to seek a de novo administrative review, followed by judicial review before the U.S. Court of International Trade. It is currently evaluating all available legal remedies in consultation with its US trade counsel.
