Knudson Named Regional President and Head of Commercial Banking for PNC Bank in Austin

June 15, 2021

PNC Financial Services Group Inc., PNC Bank’s parent company, completed its acquisition of BBVA USA Bancshares Inc., the parent company of BBVA USA, on June 1.

In addition, he worked in commercial real estate lending throughout Arizona and Utah.

A native of Fargo, North Dakota, Knudson earned a bachelor’s degree in finance from the University of North Dakota. He also was selected to attend the BBVA Executive Education Program at the University of Texas.

“I feel very fortunate to return to Austin as regional president for PNC at such an exciting time in the city’s history,” Knudson told the Austin Business Journal. “This team is extremely proud of what it’s accomplished over the years and I’m humbled to have an opportunity to build upon that legacy with the industry-leading technology and innovative products and services PNC can offer.”

PNC Bank’s Austin leadership team also includes Stephen Jeffrey, wealth management market leader; Christian Brown, corporate banking market leader; Ron Ross, institutional asset management market director; and Juan Garcia, retail market manager.

Established in 1864, PNC Bank operates approximately 2,775 branches in 40 states across the U.S.
