Shaun Wallis leaves Corinthia to pursue Swiss FS prospects

Shaun Wallis is leaving the Corinthia Hotel Group, where he had been serving as a director on the chairman’s advisory and management board to pursue prospects in the international financial services sector in Switzerland.

Mr Wallis was also a director of business development with International Hotel Investments plc since 2011.

A former well-known chief executive and director of HSBC Bank Malta plc, Mr Wallis was a member of HSBC Group’s global management team, and retired after 33 years service in 2011.

He was awarded the National Order of Merit, Officer Class, by the President of Malta in 2009 in recognition of his services to the island.

“I have a great love for Malta and many friends here. I have no doubt I will remain in close contact,’’ Mr Wallis said this week.
