TBC Bank Names New Georgia CEO as Group Sharpens International Focus

The latest update is out from TBC Bank ( (GB:TBCG) ).

TBC Bank Group PLC has reshaped the leadership of its core Georgian subsidiary, appointing long-serving executive George Tkhelidze as CEO of JSC TBC Bank, subject to regulatory approval, while Deputy CEO Tornike Gogichaishvili will depart the bank in March 2026. The move frees Group CEO Vakhtang Butskhrikidze to concentrate on broader strategic priorities in Georgia, Uzbekistan and new international markets, and is intended to reinforce TBC’s dominant position in Georgian banking by elevating a proven internal leader with a strong record in corporate and investment banking and wealth management.

The Supervisory Board and senior management framed the change as a continuity-driven succession, highlighting Tkhelidze’s role in building TBC’s CIB franchise into a market leader and his long-standing collaboration with Butskhrikidze. By delegating day-to-day oversight of Georgian operations while retaining close involvement at Group level, the reorganisation underscores TBC’s ambitions to deepen its leadership at home and accelerate expansion in Central Asia and other markets, with implications for sustained growth and competitive strength across its key business segments.
