growth. Owen’s track record of innovation for Regions includes his
fintech partnership strategy, launching a new business focused on
serving the underbanked population and the development of Regions’

“John brings nearly four decades of experience in the banking
industry and has a wealth of knowledge related to technology
transformation to enhance the customer experience,” said Roger
Hochschild, CEO and President of Discover. “I am confident that he
will help Discover continue to succeed as a leading digital bank
and payments company and look forward to John’s contributions as a
member of our already strong Board.”
Prior to joining Regions Financial, Owen was chief executive

in Atlanta. Prior to that, Owen was senior vice president of Global
Systems Development for Citicorp Credit Services, chief information
officer of North American operations for Arrow Electronics and
senior vice president of technology for American Airlines. He began
