Sept. 27 (UPI) -- Wells Fargo on Friday introduced its new chief executive -- Bank of New York Mellon Chairman Charles Scharf -- and wrapped a six-month search for a leader it hopes will distance the institution from a gamut of recent scandals.
The nation's fourth-largest bank has been without a CEO since the departure of Tim Sloan in March. The bank tabbed Scharf as a leader who's well-suited to guide Wells Fargo after the run of negative publicity.
