Risk Leadership Series: Mahesh Aditya, CEO Santander Consumer Bank US

A CRO's Transition to CEO: What It Takes and What It Means for an Organization

Please join the Robert H. Smith School of Business at the University of Maryland in a discussion on Risk Leadership with Mahesh Aditya, President and CEO of Santander Consumer, Dr. Clifford Rossi, Finance Professor of the Practice, and Robert Iommazzo, co-founder and Managing Partner of SEBA Executive Search.

Few CROs are able to make the leap to CEO. Why is that? In our conversation with Mahesh Aditya, Santander Consumer Bank's CEO, we trace his journey from CRO to COO and finally to CEO to learn what qualities are essential for risk managers to taking that next step. We will also examine how that background can help manage bank performance during a time of increased risk and market volatility.

Mahesh Aditya was named President and CEO of Santander Consumer in December 2019. He joined Santander in March 2017 as US Chief Operating Officer and was named US Chief Risk Officer in May 2018. He currently serves on the Boards of Santander Consumer and AutoFi. Prior to joining Santander he was the Chief Risk Officer and a Member of the Operating Committee for Visa Inc.
