The Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (FHLB Des Moines) has named Kristina K. Williams as its next president and chief executive officer, effective Jan. 2. She replaces Mike Wilson, who is retiring.

I am excited to work with the board of directors, management and employees to not only ensure FHLB Des Moines is financially and operationally sound but adds value for members from Juneau, Alaska to the Bootheel of Missouri and many cities and communities in between.”
