Mastercard has appointed Sasha Krstic president of its Canada operations.
Krstic, a longtime Mastercard executive, replaces Brian Lang, who left to pursue outside opportunities, Mastercard said in a Thursday press release.
Most recently Krstic was executive vice president of services for the Asia-Pacific market, and previously she was country manager for the Nordic and Baltic regions, according to the release.
As president, Krstic will oversee customer relations, product development and sales, operating from Mastercard’s Canadian headquarters in Toronto.
“Sasha’s firsthand experience in developing payment products and new technologies will help us bring continued innovation to help our customers grow their business,” said Craig Vosburg, Mastercard’s president of North America, in the release.
“I’m thrilled to be returning home to lead our business and team in the Canadian payment market, which has a track record for being a global leader in innovation from contactless acceptance to new and innovative ways to send and receive electronic payments,” Krstic said in the release.
