SEAN FOLEY
REGIONAL PRESIDENT
BANC OF CALIFORNIA
WHY: Previously top executive roles at KeyBank and U.S. Bank. Joined BANC in 2020 after Jared Wolff became CEO. Year ago, promoted to leader of commercial banking for OC and the Inland Empire.
NOTABLE: With the 2023 purchase of PacWest, BANC says it now has two co-HQs in Santa Ana and Los Angeles. BANC is the third-largest bank headquartered in California, with more than $33B in total assets.
QUOTABLE: “Everyone in the business world had heard that success is more determined by ‘who you know, not what you know.’ In a work environment that is increasingly virtual and remote, the importance of personal relationships is more important than ever, especially when choosing a business banker.”
