ANZ's current treasurer, Rick Moscati, was among those charged earlier this month by authorities over cartel allegations regarding an ANZ share issue in 2015.

Went, who will take charge in July, is currently responsible for credit and capital management for the bank's Financial Institutions Group, ANZ said in a statement.
