First National Bank, the largest subsidiary of F.N.B. Corporation FNB,  announced updates to its leadership team that are designed to provide greater market coverage, enhanced efficiency and in-depth focus on specific areas of the Company.

The updates include the appointment of proven FNB executives to strategic Commercial and Retail Banking leadership roles. Boyd K. Pethel has been named Executive Vice President of Metro Commercial Banking. Todd L. Hays and Daniel R. Holquist will serve as Executive Directors of Retail Banking, responsible for Sales and Administration & Operations, respectively. Additionally, David B. Green has been promoted to Executive Vice President, reflecting the growth of the mortgage banking division under his leadership as Director of Mortgage Services.

"We have brought together a talented group of bankers who have generated great success for FNB, and I am pleased to tap into their extensive experience as we grow and strengthen critical areas of our business," said Vincent J. Delie, Jr., Chairman, President and CEO of F.N.B. Corporation and First National Bank. "The depth and strength of our leadership team enables us to better align our resources to drive results."

Pethel, Executive Vice President of Metro Commercial Banking, is responsible for driving consistency and the execution of the Commercial Banking sales model throughout FNB's Pittsburgh, Cleveland and Mid-Atlantic (Washington, D.C., Northern Virginia and the greater Baltimore area) Regions. The Regional Presidents in these markets report to Pethel. Pethel's new role builds on his success overseeing FNB's expansion in Cleveland as Regional President, a role he had held since 2013. Pethel has more than three decades of experience with prominent regional financial institutions.

The newly created Metro Commercial Banking role reflects FNB's larger scale and increasingly diverse geographic footprint by enabling greater focus on metropolitan and non-metropolitan markets, the latter of which continue to be overseen by Frank R. Krieder, Executive Vice President of Community Commercial Banking. Pethel and Krieder report to Robert M. Moorehead, Chief Wholesale Banking Officer. Moorehead also oversees the four Regional Presidents serving North Carolina, providing a direct line of sight into the continued development of FNB's newest markets.
