Spotlight on You

Reymundo “Rey” Ocañas, who currently serves as the Southwest Territory executive for PNC’s Community Development Banking, will assume leadership of the Community Development Banking function for PNC in January 2022. Before joining PNC, Ocañas served as director of communications and responsible business at BBVA USA. Congratulations, Rey!

Ralph Izzo, chairman and CEO of PSEG, was featured in ROI-NJ for his comments made at COP26 events in support of taking action against climate change. “If the U.S. aggressively pursues carbon reduction, we will see U.S. companies develop technologies that can be exported to other countries when they eventually get more ambitious about reducing carbon,” he said. “We can develop batteries, EV charging equipment, advanced nuclear, higher conversion efficiency solar, more efficient appliances... It’s an opportunity to lead.”
