AMSTERDAM, June 29 (Reuters) - The former chief financial officer of Dutch banking group ABN AMRO was found dead Sunday after being missing for nearly a week, Britain's Daily Mail newspaper reported, citing unnamed sources.

Huibert Boumeester, a Dutch national, apparently killed himself, the paper said.

Boumeester, who was also the one-time CEO of ABN AMRO Asset Management, went missing on June 22. London's Metropolitan Police said at the time that two of his guns were missing as well.

In a statement on Monday, Britain's Thames Valley Police would say only that the unidentified body of a man was found Sunday morning in Winkfield, about 48 kilometres (30 miles) west of London. He apparently died of gunshot wounds.

An ABN spokeswoman told Reuters the bank had no information on Boumeester's reported death, but that its thoughts were with his family.

Spokespeople for Royal Bank of Scotland, which led a consortium that acquired ABN in 2007, were not available to comment. (Reporting by Ben Berkowitz; Editing by Hans Peters)
