Bank appoints regional president

NAPLES — Sabadell Bank & Trust promoted Scott Kellett to regional president of Southwest Florida, the bank announced.

Previously, Kellett served as executive vice president. He opened the Miami-based bank's Naples office two years ago and has 18 years of experience in the industry.

A subsidiary of Spain-based Banco Sabadell, the bank has boosted its presence in Florida. The lender expanded to the West Coast of Florida by acquiring the assets and deposits of Lydian Private Bank after it was seized by regulators, establishing beachheads in Naples, Sarasota and Tampa.
