Joseph A. Fernandez of BNY Mellon Wealth Management Named Banking Power Leader by South Florida Business Journal

Regional president has lead expansion of Florida presence

BNY Mellon Wealth Management president of Florida, Joseph A. Fernandez, was recognized as a Power Leader in the banking community by the South Florida Business Journal. For more than five years the South Florida Business Journal has compiled their Power Leaders list of the most influential executives from across the region's private, public and civic sectors. The list consists of the true movers and shakers of South Florida's economic engine.

With more than 25 years of experience in wealth management and financial planning and operations, Fernandez has managed teams and led various high visibility projects that have materially impacted firm-wide results in one of the largest wealth management organizations in the U.S. Fernandez is responsible for all aspects of BNY Mellon Wealth Management's business in the state of Florida, including business development, wealth management and planning, investment management, private banking, M&A activity, and client service.

"We are extremely proud of Joe Fernandez," said Tom Dicker, President – U.S. Markets, of BNY Mellon Wealth Management. "We know that this recognition is the fruit of his hard work, perseverance, and willingness to take on varied and challenging assignments over the course of his career. He has led the rapid growth of our enterprise in Florida and has positioned himself as a central figure in the banking sector and in the wider South Florida community."

The Power Leader list is compiled from the reporting of the South Florida Business Journal and from on-the-ground realities of the impact leaders have had in their industries, the regional economy and the South Florida community's character. It reflects the powerful role a successful and involved executive plays across in South Florida's dynamic and growing business and cultural community.
