The Jamaica National (JN) Financial Group is advising of the retirement of long-time managing director Curtis Martin, who departure is effective as of July 1.

Earl Jarrett, CEO of parent company JN Group Limited, described Martin’s contributions as valuable to its transformation, since joining the group in 2013.

“He has been involved in various change initiatives such as the transformation of the building society and its subsidiaries into the JN Group and led on important transactions during his tenure resulting in the achievement of key milestones for the organisation,” said Jarrett. “We wish him well in this new phase of his life.”

Martin was appointed managing director of the JN Financial Group Limited in 2022. Prior to this, he served as managing director of JN Bank, a role he held for almost five years. He joined the Jamaica National Building Society in 2013 as assistant general manager, treasury operations, and served also as its chief financial officer until his appointment to JN Bank.

He served as a director of several companies in the JN Group and is a former chairman of the Jamaica Stock Exchange and Jamaica Central Securities Depository (JCSD) (2006-2011).

He remains a director of the JCSD and a JCSD Trustee Services member.

Hugh Miller, chief treasury and investment manager at JN Group, will assume the role of acting managing director of JN Financial Group Limited.
