TD Bank named Ralph Bumbaca as regional president of Metro New York, including New York City, Long Island, Hudson Valley, Upstate New York, Northern New Jersey and Fairfield County. He is based in Manhattan.
As regional president of Metro New York, Bumbaca’s leadership will extend across the region’s commercial and consumer banking operations, including overseeing approximately 310 stores and multiple lending teams across both small business and regional banking. He will also direct community involvement and giving in the Metro to closely align with local needs. Through close partnerships with middle market lending, TD wealth and other groups, Bumbaca will foster continued success across the entire portfolio.
“Ralph is a longstanding member of the TD team, having already made tremendous impacts in the past 14 years,” Andy Bregenzer, co-head of commercial banking at TD Bank, said. “I am excited for the leadership Ralph will bring as we look toward TD’s further evolution in enhancing client relationships and supporting our communities throughout our consumer and commercial banking businesses.”
Bumbaca has more than 35 years of experience in the banking industry. He joined TD Bank 14 years ago as regional vice president (RVP) of Brooklyn. He also served as RVP of the Manhattan North and Manhattan proper regions before being promoted to commercial market president of New York City in 2019. In that role, he was instrumental in expanding NYC’s commercial business development team for LGTBTQ2+ and minority customers and led during the pandemic, which included TD’s paycheck protection program rollout.
“As a native New Yorker, Ralph has a deep understanding of the financial needs of residents and business owners across the area, which will serve him well in his new role,” Matt Boss, head of consumer banking at TD Bank, said. “He’s well-known within the bank and the community, and I’m confident that under his leadership, we’ll continue to deliver the advice, guidance and legendary experience our customers have come to expect from TD.”
Outside of his role at the bank, Bumbaca is an active community member and mentor with a passion for supporting local business owners and seeking solutions to improve the lives of all New Yorkers. He serves on several nonprofit boards of directors including for the Boys and Girls Club of Metro Queens, Business Initiative Corp of NYC, Manhattan Chamber of Commerce, Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce, Carroll Garden Association and The Anne Saxelby Legacy Fund.
