JACQUELINE RUSSELL
Senior Vice President; Market Executive
Banc of California
Jacqueline Russell is a senior vice president and market executive for Banc of California’s Specialty Banking Group. She provides banking services to legal fiduciaries, law firms, property and community management companies, government agencies, third-party escrow and 1031 exchange qualified intermediaries.
Russell describes her role as “solving problems for clients who don’t fit in a box” and from this point of view, created Banc of California’s contractual escrow product in 2019. This niche offering within specialty banking administrates escrow funds for complex situations, such as M&A, investment pools, business litigation or even class action administration. Russell routinely leads the bank in bringing in noninterest-bearing deposits, which are critical to a bank’s profitability and ability to lend.
