Carmel Asciak was born in Valletta in 1951 and now resides in Mellieħa. He enjoyed a distinguished 40-year career with Bank of Valletta, where he rose through the ranks to eventually reach an executive position. During his early years with the bank, he studied with the London Institute of Bankers and successfully achieved associateship. Currently, he applies his professional experience to the transport sector, where he works on a part-time basis.

He holds Christian values dear, along with a strong commitment to Malta’s identity and its cultural heritage. He joined his current team to contribute toward a Malta where social justice and good governance reign.
