Pittsburgh-based PNC Bank has announced Connie Bond Stuart will retire as regional president for central and southern Indiana. Banking executive Jason Eckerle, who most recently served as Midwest regional executive for PNC Commercial Banking, will succeed Stuart.

Over the course of her 40-year career, Stuart held numerous roles in corporate banking. The bank says she helped establish PNC’s first commercial real estate banking presence in the Washington, D.C. area.

“Beyond her many professional achievements and civic engagement, Connie has helped grow and cultivate the regional business landscape and the greater community,” said Scott Swanson, PNC office of the regional presidents Midwest territory executive. “Connie’s commitment to workforce development has helped foster a dynamic team of local PNC leaders, ensuring her standard of excellence and passion for advocacy will be embedded in our culture for years to come.”

The bank says Stuart will begin transitioning her duties to Eckerle, who has worked in commercial and corporate banking for nearly 30 years. Eckerle began his career as a credit analyst for First America Bank, which later became National City Bank.
