NEW YORK, Sept 2 (Reuters) - Deutsche Bank

hired Lisa McGeough as its head of the Americas region and CEO

of its U.S. business, the company announced on Tuesday, after

she left a similar role at HSBC months into the job.

McGeough will start at Deutsche Bank in early 2026 and

report to Fabrizio Campelli, the member of the management board

responsible for the corporate and investment banking units, as

well as the Americas, UK and Ireland regions.

She will also join the lender's management committee.

"The Americas region is an important growth driver for

Deutsche Bank, and Lisa's extensive commercial experience in

both the United States and Europe will allow us to more closely

integrate regional management with the regional business

divisions," Campelli said in the statement, citing her deep

client network on both sides of the Atlantic.

Paul Maley will serve as interim head of the Americas until

McGeough joins.
