Emigrant Bank has named Kenneth Eyler as managing director, a strategic hire aimed at expanding its family office capabilities and deepening support for ultra-high-net-worth families and affiliated wealth firms. Eyler will work closely with Liz Nesvold, vice chair of Emigrant Bank, and Mark Rogozinski, head of family office services, to broaden the bank’s service offering and institutional relationships.
Eyler brings over three decades of experience in the family office space. Most recently at Cresset, he led their family office services division. His previous roles include CEO of Aquilance, a platform serving affluent families, and leader of the family office practice at Arthur Bell. Known for his operational insight and client-centric approach, Eyler has worked extensively with both single- and multi-family offices.
This move follows Emigrant’s ongoing strategy to provide enhanced structural planning and operational resources to RIAs and family offices across its platform, including Emigrant Partners and Fiduciary Network.
“Ken is a standout in the space—principled, thoughtful, and deeply embedded in the mechanics of family offices,” said Nesvold, who also previously held leadership roles at Cresset and Raymond James. Rogozinski added, “We’ve known each other for years, and I’ve always respected his ability to navigate complex client challenges with care and clarity.”
Founded in 1850, Emigrant is the largest family-owned bank in the US, with a strong focus on wealth advisory platforms.
In Other Moves: Great Hill Partners Expands Talent Strategy
Private equity firm Great Hill Partners has brought on Stacey DeVoe as head of talent, shortly after acquiring a minority stake in Mission Wealth, a California-based RIA managing over $10.7 billion in assets. DeVoe was previously global head of executive recruiting at Google and brings over 25 years of experience in leadership development.
The hire is part of Great Hill’s broader strategy to support portfolio companies with top-tier executive talent. “Exceptional leadership drives long-term value,” said Mike Thompson, the firm’s recently promoted head of growth. “Stacey’s expertise will be instrumental as we scale our companies and teams.”
