A new head of risk management at the Housing Financing Fund and a change in the Board of Directors


The Housing Financing Fund (HFF) has temporarily recruited Þorsteinn Arnalds as
head of risk management and will he take over on October 1st. Þorsteinn has
been a member of the Board of Directors of the HFF for just over a year and has
many years of experience in housing matters, both in the public and the private
sector. Þorsteinn worked on diagnosing and developing valuation methods at
Registers Iceland during the years 2004 - 2012. He worked in risk management in
Arion bank 2012 - 2014 and has since then worked for The Data Protection
Agency. Þorsteinn is an engineer from The University of Iceland and has a
master's degree in statistics from University College in London. 

This is a temporary recruitment as the former head of risk management has
accepted a job at a bank in Denmark and the projects of the risk management are
of great significance at this time and therefore important to man the position
until it can be advertised. The position will be advertised no later than next
autumn. Þorsteinn has at this time resigned from the Board of Directors of HFF.
