Northern Trust Wealth Management has appointed Gary Poth as President of the Ohio Market. Poth, who has more than 25 years of financial services experience, will lead an integrated team that delivers investment management, trust and estate planning, private and business banking and financial consulting for clients.

Poth succeeds Michael Cogan, who will remain strongly engaged in the business until his retirement on June 1, 2026. Cogan has served as the market leader in Ohio for nearly 20 years. During his tenure, the Ohio team strengthened client relationships, expanded market presence and delivered consistent, high-quality service.

“Mike’s leadership shaped two decades of growth and client success in Cleveland—he’s been a passionate and thoughtful steward for the business and we look forward to celebrating his outstanding contributions,” Wealth Management President Jason Tyler said. “Gary brings an exciting mix of experience and vision to carry that momentum forward. His leadership style and market expertise make him a perfect fit to oversee our continued expansion across Ohio.”

Poth joins Northern Trust from Key Private Bank where he led the ultra-high-net-worth and multi-family office division. Prior to that, Poth was Key Private Bank’s national head of strategy and sales. Earlier in his career, Poth held leadership positions at PNC and National City Bank, as well as stints at JP Morgan Private Bank and EY.
