BROOKLYN, N.Y. – Polish & Slavic FCU, which has been beset by political turmoil for the past eight years, said yesterday it has hired Bogdan Chmielewski, a former branch manager, as its new president and CEO. Chmielewski, 42, was most recently a vice president at HSBC where he was responsible for the bank’s business in northern Brooklyn, and was a PSFCU branch manager for nine years before that. Chmielewski replaces Alicja Malecka, who was fired from the $1.1 billion credit union in early February. Polish & Slavic has weathered various political upheavals in recent years and was run under conservatorship by NCUA from 1999 to 2001.
