KANSAS CITY—Fifth Third is expanding its commercial banking presence in Missouri by opening its first Kansas City office and announcing the addition of Taylor Dunn, who will serve as city president. Dunn is tasked with both leading and growing the new commercial office while continuing to foster clients the St. Louis team has developed over the years.

"Having spent the last 10 years in Kansas City, I can attest to this city’s deep sense of community and how businesses link arms to create a thriving ecosystem," said Dunn. "Fifth Third is growing and innovating at an exceptional level and I look forward to joining the team and building out our presence here in the Kansas City market!"

As city president, Dunn will build upon the bank’s momentum in Missouri and expand Fifth Third’s local presence in the Kansas City market.

Dunn comes to Fifth Third from JP Morgan where she spent 17 years of her career. She also spent three years at the Federal Reserve Bank in Kansas City. Originally from New Jersey, she attended Fairfield University in Fairfield, Conn., where she received a finance degree.
