Robert F. Rivers named Chairman and CEO of Eastern Bank
Succeeds Richard E. Holbrook; Quincy Miller appointed Vice Chairman and President
BOSTON, Jan. 2, 2017 – Robert F. Rivers has been elected by the Eastern Bank Board of Directors to the position of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, the bank announced today.
Rivers joined Eastern Bank in 2006 as its Vice Chairman and Chief Banking Officer, becoming President in 2007, Chief Operating Officer in 2012, and an Eastern Bank Director in 2015. The Board also elected Quincy Miller to succeed Rivers as bank President. Both promotions were effective Jan. 1.
“In just 16 months, Eastern Bank will celebrate our 200th year in business as the United States’ oldest and largest mutual bank,” said Rivers. “While our leadership has changed over the years, our commitment to mutuality and the communities we serve remains the same. I look forward to building upon Rich Holbrook’s legacy and I’m grateful for the Board’s confidence in me as we lead Eastern into our third century of business.”
A native of Stoughton, Massachusetts, Rivers began his banking career in 1982 as a teller while in college, joining the former Old Stone Bank in Providence upon graduation in 1986. From 1991 to 2005, he held a number of staff and line leadership positions at M&T Bank in Buffalo, N.Y. Prior to joining Eastern, he was an Executive Vice President for Retail Banking at the former Commercial Federal Bank in Omaha, Nebraska.
Rivers earned his undergraduate degree at Stonehill College, and his MBA from the University of Rochester. He lives in Needham with his wife and two children.
Miller, who joined Eastern last year as Vice Chairman and Chief Banking Officer, began his banking career in 1997 at M&T Bank in New York, N.Y. He worked for M&T in a number of leadership roles until 2006 when he joined Citizens Bank in Cleveland, Ohio. Prior to joining Eastern, he spent 10 years at Citizens, most recently as President of Citizens Bank, Massachusetts and President of its Business Banking division.
Miller, who lives in Milton with his wife and two children, earned his undergraduate degree from Lafayette College and is a graduate of the Consumer Bankers Association Graduate School of Retail Bank Management.

(Boston Orange 周菊子波士頓報導)儘管川普(Donald Trump)上台後,中美關係是否持續走高,仍待觀察,麻州旅遊業對中國遊客的期待,可是十分高昂。大波士頓會議旅遊局(Greater
Boston Convention & Visitors Bureau)訂了5年計畫,希望到2021年時,可以吸引到50萬中國遊客來訪。
會場。 |
為達到這一目的,大波士頓會議旅遊局12月中辦了一場研討會,還預定2017年3月組織一個行銷團(Sales Mission)訪問中國。

中國遊客人數多,出手闊綽,人們早已耳聞。旅遊市場洞察(Travel
Market Insights)董事長Scott Johnson在會中陳述的2015年約有21萬名中國遊客到波士頓,約佔中國訪美遊客的10分之一,總共花了2億4600萬元等統計數據,加上到2020年時,中國大概會有2億5000萬人出國旅遊,每年成長幅度約14%的估計,讓大波士頓旅遊業人士無不摩拳擦掌。

大波士頓會議旅遊局在2016年12月安排的這場為期一日”中國友好研討會”,邀有波士頓喜來登酒店總經理Angela Vento擔任早上環節主持人。請得標誌旅遊(Trademark

大波士頓會議旅遊局Patrick
Moscaritolo表示,該局早從2012年就開始參加”活躍美國中國(Active America China)這類的行業展覽,和中國的旅遊業者接洽,還製作了中文網站,中文視頻。2013年,為因應海南航空的即將開通波士頓直飛北京航線,他們還在波士頓喜來登酒店總經理Angela Vento率領下,組成一個”中國友好市場行銷委員會”。由於波士頓是設在北京的世界旅遊城市聯盟所認可,僅有的5個美國城市之一,波士頓有著比美國其他地區更好的機會來爭取中國遊客。該局因此訂定到2021年要吸引50萬名中國遊客的這5年計畫。
波士頓現有海南航空直飛北京,上海,國泰航空公司直飛香港的航班服務,中國遊客到訪波士頓的人數的確因此大增。國泰航空公司還從2016年3月起,把一週4天的航班服務,增加為每日一班。
這場研討會由大波士頓會議旅遊局和波士頓喜來登(Sheraton)酒店,麻州旅遊辦公室,麻州港務局,梅西百貨公司,美國運通公司等合作舉辦。2017年內,還將再辦數場這樣的研討會。
