Huntington Names Brant Standridge as President of Holding Company and Bank Subsidiary
Columbus, Ohio-based Huntington Bancshares has appointed Brant Standridge as president of both the holding company and its bank subsidiary. The move follows a multi-year succession planning process led by CEO Steve Steinour and third-party experts. In his new role, Standridge will oversee all revenue-generating businesses at Huntington while retaining his current responsibilities in consumer and regional banking. Standridge joined Huntington in 2022 as president of consumer and business banking after serving as chief retail community banking officer at Truist since its formation from the BB&T-SunTrust merger. He has led key initiatives, including the integration of Veritex and Cadence banks to expand Huntington's presence in Texas and the Southeast. CEO Steinour will continue as chairman and CEO for several more years but now focuses on strategy rather than day-to-day operations. Standridge’s leadership is seen as critical to advancing Huntington’s growth agenda.
