Lloyds Bank appoints new Managing Director

Lloyds Bank Corporate & Institutional Banking has announced that appointed Lisa Francis as Managing Director, Institutional Coverage. 

Francis career spans more than 30 years in leading financial institutions. She joined Lloyds Bank earlier in the year to lead a project on strategic delivery for Corporate & Institutional Banking. Prior to joining Lloyds, Francis most recent role was at Barclays Private Bank, where she spent five years as CEO of UK and Crown Dependencies. Prior to this, Lisa held a number of leadership positions in FX sales and trading at Barclays and Natwest, having begun her career at Natwest in 1990. 

John Winter, CEO, Corporate & Institutional Banking, said “Lisa brings to us a deep understanding of institutional, corporate and private banking, which will be invaluable as we look to accelerate growth in our institutional coverage franchise. Clients increasingly require more than traditional banking solutions, whether that is access to sustainability-linked finance and advisory services as they transition to net zero or to a more holistic range of financial services and products. We have a strong institutional client base and I’m looking forward to supporting Lisa in her new role.”
