Prime Financial Credit Union has named Christine Moczynski president and chief executive officer of the Cudahy-based institution.
Moczynski had served as Prime Financial’s interim CEO since August.
“Chris has done an outstanding job leading Prime Financial, and we are delighted that she has accepted this permanent chief executive position,” said H.B. Staffileno, chairman of the Prime Financial board of directors. “All of us on the board look forward to working with Chris, the management team and staff to ensure the credit union’s continued success.”
Moczynski has been with Prime Financial since 1995. She served as chief financial officer before becoming interim CEO and has also served as the credit union’s controller.
“Thanks to the hard work and dedication of our independent board and talented staff, Prime Financial Credit Union has had the honor of serving our devoted members for over 87 years,” she said. “We look forward to continuing the credit union tradition of ‘people helping people’ in 2011 and beyond.”
Mark McMullen has been named vice chairman of Associated Bank. After 29 years of service to Associated’s Wealth Management business and in preparation for his eventual retirement, McMullen is transitioning his current role to Timothy Lau and is assuming an expanded responsibility with the bank.
Under McMullen’s leadership, Associated’s Wealth Management division expanded to provide a full array of private banking, investment management, trust, financial planning, and insurance services. In his new capacity, McMullen will focus on overall client retention and new business development. He will continue to serve as a member of Associated Banc-Corp’s executive committee.
"My focus will be on enhancing our strong client relationships," said McMullen. "I look forward to this new chapter in my career as I take a more important role for the overall bank. I hope to leverage my years of experience to help Associated as we continue to practice our belief in personal service coupled with sound, value-added financial solutions."
Lau succeeds McMullen as executive vice president, head of Wealth Management for Associated Banc-Corp and Associated Bank N.A. Lau will be based in Green Bay.
"I believe Tim will bring a unique business perspective to Associated Wealth Management that will allow us to expand our offerings to our Wealth Management clients," said McMullen. "We’re excited about what he brings to this responsibility."
"I’m honored to follow Mark in Associated’s commitment to serving our Wealth Management clients," Lau said. "As we move forward as an organization, Mark’s continued guidance will prove invaluable to our organization’s growth and success."
