SMBC MANUBANK, a wholly owned subsidiary of SMBC Americas Holdings, Inc., and a member of SMBC Group, announced it has appointed three new executives to lead the Credit, Accounting, and Information Technology functions as part of the bank’s ongoing business transformation.

Michael Trivich joined the bank in June as Managing Director, Chief Credit Officer. Leading the bank’s 2nd line of defense Credit Risk Administration, Mr. Trivich balances loan portfolio growth with prudent credit risk controls, as well as designing the client experience from start to finish.

In September, the bank welcomed Monica Sparks as Executive Director, Chief Accounting Officer to oversee all corporate accounting, financial reporting, tax, and internal control functions for the commercial and digital divisions. Ms. Sparks is responsible for spearheading initiatives to streamline accounting processes by implementing automation and other technology solutions.

In October, Jeff Jones became Managing Director, Chief Information Officer, overseeing the combined technology strategy for SMBC MANUBANK’s commercial and digital divisions. Mr. Jones is responsible for establishing a technology infrastructure and partnering with leaders across the organization to strengthen the Jenius Bank technology product development.

“We’re excited to welcome Mr. Trivich, Ms. Sparks, and Mr. Jones to SMBC MANUBANK’s leadership team,” said Kazuhisa Miyagawa, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and President. “With their diverse experiences in driving change, these accomplished executives are pivotal to the ongoing enhancements of SMBC MANUBANK’s organizational framework.”

The bank officially kicked off its transformation in 2023 by rebranding from Manufacturers Bank to SMBC MANUBANK. Key aspects of the ongoing initiative include continuous investments in people, technology, and processes to elevate the bank’s high-touch, high-engagement business model.
