“At M&T we have succeeded, in part, by ensuring that our rising leaders gain diverse work, administration and leadership experiences. This tradition was exemplified by our long-time President, Mark Czarnecki, whose own career was distinguished by wide-ranging assignments and ever-growing responsibilities,” said M&T Chairman and CEO, Robert G. Wilmers. “While it is difficult to replace Mark and restructure his duties, this necessary task is more manageable because we’re carrying on his career tradition, and because his responsibilities are being passed to strong and practiced leaders who have followed in Mark’s footsteps.”

Mr. Gold will assume responsibility for Retail Banking, Business Banking, Mortgage and Consumer Lending and Marketing, and he will also maintain his responsibility for the Legal Division.
The responsibilities of Mr. Jones (52) have been expanded. He has been with the bank for 25 years and has held various leadership roles, counting Chief Financial Officer for 11 years. In addition to maintaining his duties running Wilmington Trust and the Treasury Division, Mr. Jones will now also have responsibility for Human Resources and M&T’s Buffalo Promise Neighborhood program.
The duties of Mr. Pearson (55) have been raised. He has been with the bank for 28 years, and he devoted his time to building and enhancing the Commercial Banking and Credit Divisions across all of M&T’s geographies. In addition to maintaining his duties running the Commercial and Credit Divisions, Mr. Pearson will now have responsibility for the Technology and Banking Operations Division.
“With a combined total of more than 80 years of experience at M&T, Rich, René and Kevin are more than ready to assume greater responsibilities, a clear indication of the breadth of ability and depth of experience on our Administration Group,” Mr. Wilmers said. “As they take on larger roles, our employees, customers and shareholders will see continuity in M&T’s overall vision because they have been an integral part of our growth and success over the years.”
