The thesis
Two Co-Presidents jointly oversee all eight of Bank of America’s major lines of business, an uncommon structure among global banks.
Rather than appointing a single COO with end-to-end P&L authority, the firm split operating leadership in September 2025 between Dean Athanasia and James DeMare, both reporting directly to CEO Brian Moynihan. This creates parallel oversight across Consumer Banking, GWIM, Global Banking, and Global Markets.
The CEO maintains a wide span of control with 11 direct reports, including deep functional leaders in risk, technology, legal, and operations. This reflects regulatory demands and the firm’s emphasis on centralized risk, credit, and technology governance. Business presidents such as GCIB sit one layer below the Co-Presidents, reinforcing a divisional model with strong corporate control.
The comparison
Compared with peers like JPMorgan Chase and Citigroup, Bank of America’s dual Co-President model is distinctive. JPMorgan concentrates operating authority under a single COO and business CEOs, while Citigroup separates institutional and consumer leadership. Wells Fargo retains a more traditional COO-led structure. Bank …
