Athene CFO set to retire

Athene Holding chief financial officer Martin Klein has announced he plans to retire after nearly ten years in the role.

Athene, which was founded in Bermuda and has several subsidiaries on the island, will initiate a search for a new chief financial officer. 

Klein will remain in his role until his successor is in place to ensure a seamless transition. At that time, he will assume the role of senior advisor where he will continue to provide guidance to the firm.

“I want to thank Marty for his many contributions to Athene’s success,” said Jim Belardi, CEO of Athene. “He has brought strong financial leadership, dedication and expertise to the CFO role, and has been an important part of the executive team during his tenure of nearly ten years.”

Klein has served as Athene’s executive vice president and chief financial officer since 2015. Prior to joining Athene, Klein spent 30-plus years in leadership roles at insurance and financial services organisations.

“It has been a privilege to serve as Athene’s CFO and work alongside Jim and the rest of the deeply talented leadership team,” said Klein. “I look forward to continuing to support Athene’s success and growth through a seamless transition and in my advisory role longer term.”
