(Reuters) -- HSBC Holdings' high-profile Chairman Mark Tucker will return to the insurance sector as chair of Hong Kong-based AIA Group, after having presided over top management changes and navigated Sino-U.S. tensions at the Asia-focused lender.
Tucker will depart HSBC by September 30 and will step into the role of AIA chairman on October 1, the two companies said in separate statements on Friday. Tucker served as AIA chief executive and president between 2010 and 2017.
