Anthony Grigos, Bay Ridge Federal Credit Union's executive vice president since 2013, has been tapped to succeed Gene Brody as president and CEO of the Brooklyn, N.Y.-based credit union.
But Brody, who has been with the $200 million credit union for 53 years -- 30 as CEO -- isn't going straight to retirement. The veteran executive will continue to serve Bay Ridge as board treasurer and chief strategy officer.
Grigos came to the credit union with 15 years of experience in the real estate and mortgage industry, including a stint as a vice president at JP Morgan Chase in the bank's information technology division, which he used to grow Bay Ridge's real estate lending program and beefing up its technology infrastructure and security.
