CHICAGO - The Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago (FRBC) today announced the appointment of Timothy G. Marshall, president and CEO of Bank of Ann Arbor, Ann Arbor, Mich., to serve a one-year term as the local chairman of the FRBC’s Community Depository Institutions Advisory Council (CDIAC).
CDIAC members represent banks, thrifts and credit unions throughout the Seventh Federal Reserve District, which consists of most of Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, and Michigan, as well as Iowa.

He will replace Ms. Barrie G. Christman, chairman and CEO of Principal Bank, who will continue to serve on the FRBC’s council as a thrift representative. Other than the change in the chair, the composition of the council remains intact.
