AIG has promoted former Citi corporate communications executive Christina Pretto to the senior VP/comms. slot vacated by Nicholas Ashooh in December.
Pretto, who was VP of corporate media relations, had been filling in the top slot since Ashooh left for Alcoa.
She joined the embattled insurance and financial services giant early last year after eight years at Citigroup departing as managing director and global head of public affairs. She was previously at Standard & Poor’s.
AIG has been the top target of public ire for its multibillion-dollar bailout by the federal government. A scaled-back bonus program underway this week for AIG executives is the latest PR football. |
