KeyCorp Appoints Chris Doll as Chief Strategy Officer
KeyCorp has appointed Christopher 'Chris' Doll as its new chief strategy officer (CSO) and deputy finance chief, following his recent tenure at City National Bank. Doll previously served as CFO of City National, a subsidiary of Royal Bank of Canada, after spending over a decade in leadership roles at Fifth Third Bank. In this role, he will report to KeyCorp's CFO Clark Khayat and join the bank’s executive council. The appointment comes as part of an organizational shift aimed at reinforcing KeyCorp’s strategic priorities, particularly its focus on growing fee-based businesses like investment banking, commercial payments, and wealth management. RBC Capital Markets analysts noted that creating a dedicated CSO role is a logical step to support these goals and align with the bank's long-term financial targets. Doll succeeds Khayat in this capacity after he was promoted from strategy chief to CFO in 2022.
