State Street’s former head of technology for securities finance Frank D'Agnese has stepped up to oversee the bank’s global technology operations.
As the chief operating officer (COO) and senior vice president, information technology, D'Agnese is responsible for functions supporting the long-term development and day-to-day execution of State Street's global technology infrastructure.
His duties include strategy and planning, financial resource management, vendor management, workforce transformation, program management and governance.
D'Agnese is also responsible for ensuring the continued effective execution of State Street's technology resiliency objectives, which he oversaw directly as head of technology resiliency prior to being promoted in August 2020.
In his new role, D’Agnese reports to State Street chief information officer Sarah Berwick.
