Bandhan Bank has officially appointed Partha Pratim Sengupta as its new Managing Director and CEO, effective November 1, 2024. A veteran with close to four decades in the banking sector, Sengupta has held pivotal roles across institutions like Indian Overseas Bank and State Bank of India, where he led significant growth initiatives in credit and technology. He succeeds Ratan Kumar Kesh, who served as interim MD & CEO since July and now returns as Executive Director and Chief Operating Officer.
Dr. Anup Kumar Sinha, Chairman of Bandhan Bank, expressed optimism about Sengupta’s leadership, highlighting his track record and the critical role he will play in the bank’s “Bandhan 2.0” expansion strategy. “His expertise will guide the Bank in strengthening its market position across the country,” Dr. Sinha noted.
In Tripura, Bandhan Bank’s commitment to accessible banking aligns with the local market’s needs for greater financial inclusion and support for micro-enterprises. Under Sengupta’s leadership, the region anticipates enhanced lending options and growth-focused banking solutions, which are expected to fuel small businesses and drive local economic growth.
