Charles “Skip” Hageboeck is President and Chief Executive Officer of City Holding
Company (NASDAQ: CHCO) and its principal banking subsidiary, City National Bank,
based in Charleston West Virginia. Based upon the number of branches, City ranks
as one of the largest 100 publicly-traded banks in the US. Based upon virtually
any financial metric, City has consistently been among the best performing banks
in the U.S. throughout the last decade. Mr. Hageboeck became the Chief
Financial Officer of City in 2001, at a critical time in the Company’s history
– with the company operating under a formal agreement with its regulator, and
considered by many to be in danger of failing. Following the turn-around, Mr.
Hageboeck was named President & CEO in 2005. Prior to joining City, Mr. Hageboeck
was the CFO of Peoples Bank in Indianapolis – which sold to Fifth Third Bank
at a record setting price in 1999. He began his banking career at Indiana
National Bank as a financial analyst, and rose quickly thru the ranks to head
the bank’s powerful Asset/Liability Management Committee – responsible for managing
the bank’s loans, deposits, investments, wholesale borrowing, liquidity, interest
rate risk and capitalization.
Mr. Hageboeck holds a doctorate in Economics from Indiana University and graduated with a BS in Economics from Butler University. He is married to Samantha, and they have four children. The oldest attends the US Merchant Marine Academy and the younger children attend public schools in Charleston.
Mr. Hageboeck is active in community affairs. He is the incoming Chairman of the West Virginia Bankers Association. He is a member of the West Virginia Chamber of Commerce Executive Committee and Chairman of the state chamber’s Education Working Group, Treasurer of the West Virginia Symphony Orchestra, and a member of the Board of Directors of Thomas Hospital in Charleston.
