US Bank has appointed Benton Reichenau as head of wealth management product services, reporting to Gailyn Johnson, chief operating officer for US Bank Wealth Management.

Based in St Louis, MO, Reichenau is in charge of all product management for banking, wealth planning, investment management and trust across US Bank Wealth Management’s three business lines: the Private Client Group, the Private Client Reserve and Ascent Private Capital Management.

US Bank said Reichenau and his team will manage product research/competitive analysis, product development, pricing, profitability, ongoing product management and distribution channels, as well as overseeing client experience efforts connected to these products.

Reichenau joins US Bank from Ernst & Young, where he was a principal and leader of the West Coast financial services office performance improvement consulting practice, based in San Francisco, CA.

Before that, Reichenau was a senior vice president and head of investment management and trust products/services for the wealth management group at Wells Fargo. Earlier still, he was a managing director within the financial services practice of Bearing Point, having also previously worked with Merrill Lynch as a financial advisor.

In other recent news, last week US Bank Wealth Management appointed Kenneth Palattao as vice president and healthcare banking specialist for the PCR, which serves clients with at least $1 million in investable assets.
