CIBC President and CEO Victor Dodig Announces
Plan to Retire October 31, 2025; Harry Culham Appointed Chief Operating Officer effective April 1, 2025 and Named to Succeed Dodig as
CIBC President and CEO November 1, 2025
TORONTO, March 13, 2025 /CNW/ - CIBC (TSX: CM)
(NYSE: CM) today announced that Victor Dodig plans to retire as President and Chief Executive Officer, effective October 31, 2025, and
that Harry Culham has been appointed as Chief Operating Officer effective April 1, 2025 and will succeed Mr. Dodig as President and Chief
Executive Officer, effective November 1, 2025. Mr. Dodig will serve as a special advisor to Mr. Culham and the Board from November 1,
2025 to April 30, 2026 to support a seamless transition.
Mr. Dodig has served as President and CEO of CIBC
since September 2014, guiding the bank through a period of significant transformation and growth. Under his leadership, CIBC has become
a modern, relationship-oriented bank recognized for delivering superior client focus, consistent and reliable strategic growth, and top-tier
shareholder returns.
"It has been an honour to lead CIBC and work
alongside such a dedicated and purpose-led team," said Mr. Dodig. "Together, we have built a strong foundation for the future,
with a clear and consistent strategy focused on client relationships, financial strength, innovation, sustainability and genuine community
engagement. I am very proud of all that we have accomplished together and believe the time is right to hand the baton to Harry. I look
forward to working closely with Harry and our entire leadership team as we continue delivering exceptional value for our clients, shareholders,
and communities."
Over the past decade, CIBC built a highly connected
and client-focused team and culture that is guided by a common purpose of helping make ambitions real, renewed its brand, modernized its
workplaces, achieved best-in-class employee experience scores, and delivered the strongest client experience gains among Canadian banks.
In addition, the bank has taken a leading role in fostering inclusion, furthered its commitment to communities through the launch of the
CIBC Foundation, and became a North American leader in sustainability.
"Victor's tenure as President and CEO has been
marked by a relentless focus on our clients and an unwavering commitment to transforming CIBC into the modern, relationship-oriented bank
it is today, with a connected culture that brings the best of CIBC to its clients," said Kate Stevenson, Chair of the Board of Directors.
"Victor led key strategic acquisitions including the acquisition of PrivateBancorp, Inc., which significantly enhanced CIBC's U.S.
footprint in Commercial Banking and Wealth Management. He also led the acquisition of Costco's Canadian credit card portfolio which added
over two million clients to CIBC, including many mass affluent and business banking clients. In addition, he led transformative investments
in digital banking and technology to modernize the bank. The result is a strategic platform for growth that will benefit stakeholders
for years to come."
"We are thankful for his incredible contributions
and appreciate the care he has invested in partnering with the board as we prepare to transition to the next generation of leadership."
Harry Culham Named Chief Operating Officer and
incoming President and CEO
Effective April 1, 2025, all of CIBC's operating businesses
will report to Mr. Culham to help facilitate the leadership transition and continued strong focus on clients and performance. CIBC's corporate
functions will continue to report to Mr. Dodig until October 31, 2025.
With a proven track record of leading Capital Markets
and other key areas of CIBC's businesses and head office groups, Mr. Culham has instilled a strategic, client-focused, and growth-oriented
mindset across the organization, building an exceptional team and delivering outstanding business results.
Mr. Culham first joined CIBC in Vancouver as an intern
and participated in one of the bank's first ever graduate programs. He then gained extensive experience in senior banking roles in Europe
and Asia before rejoining CIBC in 2008, ultimately taking on the leadership of CIBC's global Capital Markets business in 2015.
Mr. Culham's global experience working with clients
across borders was instrumental in providing a broad global perspective that he has brought to CIBC's Capital Markets business, and he
has been a valued member of CIBC's Executive Committee for the past decade. Under his leadership, the business has diversified with robust
growth in North America and with global reach to better meet the changing needs of clients in an evolving marketplace, while in parallel
re-orienting the business around deep client relationships in key growth sectors. The result is a transformed business that produces consistent,
sustainable growth with reduced earnings volatility and strong credit quality with a highly connected culture.
Mr. Culham has also been responsible for leading and
optimizing several areas of the bank including CIBC Caribbean, CIBC Mellon, and the Strategic Client Office. He has also led CIBC's Enterprise
Strategy and Corporate Development function and, most recently Global Asset Management. His commitment to community service is reflected
in his roles as Co-Chair of the CIBC Foundation, Executive Chair of CIBC Miracle Day, the United Way Finance Sector lead, and as
a member of the Board of Sinai Health. He holds a degree from the University of British Columbia's Sauder School of Business and is a
Leslie Wong Fellow.
"Harry is a proven leader who has worked alongside
me, our board and the rest of our CIBC team to build the bank we are today," said Mr. Dodig. "His client focus, inclusive leadership
and track record of performance and consistency position him perfectly to take the bank forward and build on the momentum we have established.
I look forward to working closely with him over the coming months."
"I'm delighted to take on these new responsibilities
in service of CIBC's clients, employees, business partners, shareholders and the communities we serve," said Mr. Culham. "I
am enormously proud of the work we have done under Victor's leadership and am excited to build on our current momentum to fully realize
the value of the strategy we have put in place over the past several years."
"Harry's approach to creating shareholder value
through disciplined execution, prudent and risk-controlled growth, and a focus on clients are ideally suited to furthering CIBC's momentum," said
Ms. Stevenson. "Succession planning and talent development at all levels of the organization have been an ongoing and continuous
focus for our board. Today's announcement is the reflection of our process and will ensure CIBC continues to grow in a consistent and
sustainable way, creating enduring value for stakeholders."
