Huntington’s Newbold to Retire

The president of the central Indiana region for Ohio-based Huntington Bancshares Inc. (Nasdaq: HBAN) will retire this summer. Huntington says Mike Newbold will begin transitioning leadership of the region to John Corbin.

Newbold has served as Huntington’s central Indiana region president since the bank expanded into the market in 2007. He previously served as regional president for Huntington’s predecessor banks in Indianapolis.

"Mike has been an integral resource within Huntington’s senior leadership," said Steve Steinour, Huntington’s chairman, president and CEO. "His experience and expertise have contributed to Huntington’s growth and success over the past several years. We appreciate his support in facilitating a smooth shift to leave the region in good hands as he retires."

Huntington says Newbold will continue to serve as a consultant with Huntington to ensure a smooth transition after his retirement. 

"I am grateful to have had the opportunity to conclude my career working for Huntington," said Newbold. "I will continue to play an active role in the community as a volunteer as I enjoy the increased time for service retirement will bring. I congratulate John and know he is prepared and ready to take on the regional leadership role."

Corbin has served as a senior executive with Huntington for more than 10 years. A graduate of the Indiana University Kelley School of Business, Corbin spent 11 years with Chase before joining Huntington.

"I am excited to serve Huntington in my new capacity," said Corbin. "I join all Central Indiana colleagues in wishing Mike the very best for his future. As incoming regional president, I will continue Mike’s great work furthering Huntington’s performance by building and deepening relationships within our customer base."
