Hugh L. McColl Jr. (born 18 June 1935) is a fourth-generation banker[1] and the former Chairman and CEO of Bank of America. Active in banking since around 1960, McColl was a driving force behind consolidating a series of progressively larger, mostly Southern banks, thrifts and financial institutions into a super-regional banking force, "the first ocean-to-ocean bank in the nation's history".[2]
Tony Plath, director of banking studies at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, described this transformation in 2005 as "the most significant banking story of the late 20th century."[3] In 2012, journalist Matt Taibbi described the transition as "a cartoonish arms race of bank acquisitions that would ultimately turn the American business world upside down".[4] As a young man, McColl along with a colleague [3] had envisioned creating the first truly national bank with branches from coast to coast.[3]
