Mr Sala added: “His broad and deep background in all facets of global finance and operations, in addition to his high standards of excellence, will be tremendous assets to our organisation.”
In Monday’s statement, IGT said also that it had appointed Beatrice Bassey as an independent director to the firm’s board, effective March 20. Ms Bassey is currently group general counsel, chief compliance officer and corporate secretary of financial services holding company Atlas Mara Ltd.

IGT said additionally that Paget Alves had notified the company that he would retire from IGT’s board and would not stand for election at the group’s upcoming annual general meeting.
