MILAN, Oct 3 (Reuters) - Bank of America's ( BAC ) Italy

head, Nino Mattarella, is set to leave his post in early 2026

after more than eight years at the U.S. bank, an internal memo

seen by Reuters showed.

The memo from Bernie Mensah, president of International

business at BofA, said that Mattarella had informed him of his

decision to leave the company. The memo did not give a reason

for his decision.

A new country executive for Italy will be announced in due

course, with Mattarella remaining with the bank until February

to ensure a smooth transition, Mensah said.

Mattarella, formerly at Goldman Sachs ( GS ), joined BofA in 2017

and was country executive as well as head of corporate and

investment banking for Italy.
