Longtime local resident Tim Sloan, Wells Fargo’s CEO and president, will be the featured speaker at San Marino City Club’s Feb. 21 dinner meeting, it has been announced.
Sloan became CEO in October 2016 and also serves on Wells Fargo’s Board of Directors as well as being a member of the company’s operating and management committees.
“Mr. Sloan is uniquely situated to discuss the meeting’s topic: ‘A CEO Perspective on the Financial Services Industry,’” a City Club spokesperson said. “His experience in all aspects of banking, both wholesale and retail, will provide insights into broader financial and economic issues.”
Throughout his 29-year tenure with Wells Fargo, Sloan has held a variety of positions. Most recently, he served as chief operating officer when he was responsible for the operations of the company’s four main business groups: Community Banking, Consumer Lending, Wealth and Investment Management and Wholesale Banking. Before that, Sloan was the company’s chief financial officer and, earlier, chief administrative officer. He received his bachelor’s degree and an MBA from the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor.
Sloan has also found time to be active in community affairs. He serves on the Board of Overseers of the Huntington Library and is a member of the University of Michigan’s Ross School of Business Advisory Board. He is a member of the board of directors of California Resources Corporation, a trustee of the City of Hope and recently became a trustee at Caltech.
