HONG KONG - Michelle Toy, formerly head of marketing and communications for the securities services business at BNP Paribas, has joined Australia-based NAB as head of marketing and corporate affairs. 

Toy replaces Amy Johnson, who has repatriated back to Australia, according to the company.

She will oversee a marketing and corporate affairs team based in Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan and Australia with overall responsibility for the NAB International branches in Hong Kong, China, Singapore, Japan, India, UK and US, as well as representative offices in Vietnam and Indonesia.
