NY-Based Bank Appoints VPs, Private Client Advisors

The New York-based regional bank First Niagara Financial Group has appointed Gina DiMonda and Paul Hurley as vice presidents and wealth advisors for private client services, according to Democrat and Chronicle.

Both DiMonda and Hurley reportedly join First Niagara from JP Morgan Chase, where the pair were vice presidents and senior fiduciary officers. DiMonda has 20 years of experience in the industry, while Hurley has 26. Both will be based in Rochester, New York, according to the report.

Founded in 1870, the banking group was based in Niagara until the 1990s when it moved its headquarters to nearby Buffalo, New York.

First Niagara has $30 billion in assets, 346 branches, $18 billion in deposits and around 730,000 customers.
