Brig. Gen. Charles Y. Hotchkiss (Ret.) is new CBI President

Cantilan Bank’s former Executive Vice-President, Brig. Gen. Charles Y. Hotchkiss (Ret.) is now the President of CBI after the Board of Directors unanimously voted him during their election on August 6, 2014.

Brig. Gen. Charles Y. Hotchkiss (Ret.) is a military man turned banker. He retired as a Wing Commander of the 600th Air Base Wing of the Philippine Air Force in 2005. Two weeks after his retirement, he joined CBI as a member of the Board of Directors and assumed the position of the Executive Vice-President.

With his nine-year stint in the bank, he was able to prove that his military discipline has helped him handle various challenges faced by CBI.

The new CBI President replaced Lt. Gen. William K. Hotchkiss (Ret.), who is currently taking his seat in the national office as Director General of the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines.

Brig. Gen. Charles Y. Hotchkiss (Ret.) urged his team throughout the 22 branches to further deepen and strengthen its relationship with the communities it serves and to continue to support the growth and economic development of these communities.
