## Resource

Peter Lynch, controversially appointed to Invest NI’s board in April after serving time for a 1993 murder conspiracy, has stepped down amid personal circumstances — just four months into his $15K-a-year role. His appointment sparked debate over rehabilitation, with supporters highlighting his decades of community activism. Now, Maria McAllister, a seasoned financial services executive with expertise in governance and risk, takes the reins until March 2029 — signaling a renewed focus on merit-driven leadership as Invest NI pushes forward with its economic growth mission.
