Huntington Bank has appointed Brant Standridge, a veteran of Truist, as its new president, as part of its CEO succession plan. Standridge, who has been president of consumer and business banking at Huntington for the past four years, will now oversee all of the bank's revenue-generating businesses. Steve Steinour, Huntington's chairman and CEO, expressed confidence in Standridge's leadership abilities, highlighting his deep banking experience, strong operating discipline, and focus on delivering for customers and colleagues.
Standridge was tasked with pursuing recent acquisitions during a period when Steinour and the board were seeking potential CEO candidates. The bank's board expects to promote someone to head its consumer and regional banking unit under Standridge's leadership next year. This move comes as part of a trend among regional banks, which are planning their succession strategies in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis.
