SRM Appoints Shana Hennigan Executive Vice President of Client Strategy

Long-term executive brings international banking and fintech expertise to SRM’s growing advisory practice

MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- SRM, a trusted advisory firm serving financial institutions globally, today announced that Shana Hennigan has joined the firm as Executive Vice President of Client Strategy. In this role, Hennigan will help to develop and support growth initiatives for SRM’s financial institution clients.

Hennigan brings over two decades of experience advising financial institutions and fintechs on deposit growth, liquidity, funding, and digital transformation strategies. Building on SRM’s comprehensive expertise across strategy, technology, payments, and sourcing, Hennigan brings extensive institutional knowledge and hands-on fintech expertise to SRM to help identify new opportunities, deepen existing relationships and extend the firm’s reach.

“SRM is laser focused on being a catalyst for growth for our clients and helping them unlock performance opportunities in a dynamic environment,” said Stephen Johnston, Chief Growth Officer, SRM. “With her deep industry knowledge, international banking relationships, and experience in driving growth strategies for some of the largest and most innovative organizations in the industry, Shana helps us strengthen this commitment to our financial institution clients. We’re thrilled to welcome her to the team.”

SRM has spent more than three decades building the kind of institutional knowledge that only comes from working alongside banks and credit unions through interest rate cycles, core conversions, payment transformations, and the relentless pressure to do more with tighter margins. Hennigan brings that same depth of experience to the role, having built and scaled partnerships during some of the industry’s most consequential moments.

Hennigan’s career spans global financial institutions and high-growth fintechs, including leadership roles at Bank of America Merrill Lynch, IntraFi, and Safened. Most recently, as Chief Business Officer of Raisin US, she built and scaled a first-of-its-kind digital deposit platform from the ground up. Her unique vantage point and builder instinct gives her the rare ability to translate client needs into actionable strategy.

“Financial institutions are making high-stakes decisions in an increasingly complex environment, said Hennigan. “As I’ve worked with organizations to navigate these challenges, I’ve seen the importance of having the right experience, intelligence and data-driven insight to drive business growth. SRM is the right partner to help institutions and organizations confidently make these transformational decisions and I’m excited to bring my experience and insight to this already strong team.”
