Fifth Third Hires Wealth Advisor For Kentucky, Tennessee Markets

Cincinnati, Ohio-based Fifth Third Bank has strengthened its private banking team with the addition of Cody Tellis as president and wealth management advisor to cover the Bowling Green, KY, and Nashville, TN, markets.

Tellis is a relationship manager, working with affluent clients on asset protection, financial planning, estate review, risk management, generational wealth transfers, captive insurance planning and asset management.

Prior to joining Fifth Third, he served as a wealth management advisor in the Bowling Green community for four years. He is a certified financial planner and is currently pursuing his CPA license. 

In February, the bank promoted Jeff Korzenik to the role of chief investment strategist, replacing John Augustine, who was appointed as chief market strategist.

Fifth Third Bank has $117 billion in assets and operates 15 affiliates.
