MILAN (Reuters) - Marcus Johannes Chromik, an independent member of UniCredit's board and member of its Risk Committee, has resigned from the board with immediate effect, Italy's second-largest lender said on Wednesday.
Chromik has declared that his decision was due to new professional ventures, UniCredit said in a statement.
