RAPAPORT... The World Diamond Council (WDC) appointed Marie-Chantal
Kaninda as executive director, effective March 1.
Kaninda (pictured) will replace Patricia Syvrud, who is stepping down
February 28, the industry body said Monday. Syvrud had been in the role since
October 2014, when she joined as its first executive director.
Kaninda has more than 20 years’ industry experience at
companies including De Beers, Rio Tinto and Anglo Gold Ashanti. A resident of
the Democratic Republic of Congo, she has been chair of the nation’s
private-sector anti-corruption initiative since 2012. At the WDC, she will be
in overall leadership of the organization, developing relationships with key
stakeholders and coordinating the representation of the WDC at the Kimberley
Process.
