Keim will be responsible for leading the risk management function for Heartland Financial and its 10 community banks, including defining and assessing enterprise-wide business risks and facilitating proactive decision-making to effectively manage such risks. Keim will play an integral role in the company's ongoing efforts to enhance its financial reporting, expense control and risk management systems.
The new position is essential, according to Lynn B. Fuller, president and chief executive officer of Heartland Financial, during this period of expanding regulatory requirements and challenging economic conditions.
"David will help ensure that all of our banks provide value to the marketplace, measure risk and return well, and make effective business decisions that serve our customers, shareholders and stakeholders to the greatest extent possible," Fuller said.
Keim has spent the past 22 years at Susquehanna Bancshares, a $13-billion bank holding company in Pennsylvania. For five of those years, he was its chief risk officer. He has led several divisions within the organization, including risk management, loan review, credit oversight, compliance, audit and corporate insurance.
Keim was Susquehanna's chief credit officer as well as its director of corporate loan review and president of the company's commercial small ticket leasing company.
Heartland Financial USA is a $3.6-billion diversified financial services company providing commercial and retail banking, mortgage, wealth management, insurance and consumer finance services to individuals and businesses.
