Wells Fargo named Thomas DuCharme the new head of its Global Banking division. In this role, DuCharme will manage the sales and product development for Wells Fargo’s Global Banking operations. He is based in New York and reports to Richard Yorke, head of Wells Fargo’s International Group.

“We continue to invest in the best resources and talent to serve our customers as they do business internationally,” said Yorke. “With Tom’s extensive experience, I’m confident our global banking operations will become even stronger as we continue to serve the evolving international needs of our customers.”

Prior to joining Wells Fargo, DuCharme was the banking co-head of JPMorgan’s Asia Pacific Corporate & Investment Bank in Singapore where he managed client coverage teams, investment banking and corporate banking, treasury services, global trade and loans, debt capital markets, equity capital markets and mergers & acquisitions. He was also previously the head of Deutsche Bank’s Asia Pacific Global Transaction Banking platform and managing director for Citigroup’s Global Transaction Services and Corporate Banking in New York and Hong Kong.

“As more companies look to international markets for growth, I’ve been impressed with how Wells Fargo has been gradually expanding its global banking capabilities and presence in the U.S. and internationally,” said DuCharme. “I’m excited about the opportunity to lead a business that plays a critical role in the company’s international strategy.”
