In addition, a cross-functional group of U.S. Bank women leaders won a Top Team award for the work the bank is doing to deliver on environmental, social and governance goals for both the organization and for customers. U.S. Bank believes that doing business in an environmentally sustainable and socially responsible manner drives innovation, productivity and creates both short- and long-term value.

“We are incredibly fortunate to have powerful women in influential roles both in our company and in the broader financial services industry,” said Andy Cecere, chairman, president and CEO of U.S. Bank. “They make us better, challenge us to try new things, and focus on the future in ways that will help us grow stronger for years to come.”

U.S. Bank leaders have been consistently recognized in the Most Powerful program since its inception.

“The 20th anniversary of The Most Powerful Women in Banking represents an impressive milestone and gives us an opportunity to reflect on the past while looking toward the future,” said Gemma Postlethwaite, CEO of Arizent, publisher of American Banker. “When I think about what this year’s honorees have accomplished as business leaders, as mentors to women in their organizations, as inspiration to the next generation of bankers — I am confident we have the right leaders forging ahead and shaping the industry for the next 20 years and for future generations.”
