Why this org is unusual
Three divisional business CEOs report directly to Robin Vince, an uncommon structure for a custody-heavy global bank of BNY’s size.
Rather than inserting a COO or regional presidents between the CEO and operating units, BNY keeps Securities Services, Market and Wealth Services, and Investment and Wealth Management at the top table.
