Koporc succeeds Hal Clemmer, who has become regional president of Fifth Third Bank (Tennessee), based in Nashville.

Koporc most recently served as executive vice president and head of Payment and Commerce Solutions for Fifth Third, based in Cincinnati. He successfully launched that new division in 2014 and now returns to Atlanta, where he previously served as president beginning in 2010.

“Having completed the business launch we asked him to oversee, I am pleased that Randy now has agreed to return to Atlanta. He originally established our momentum there, which Hal built upon. I expect Randy to reconnect immediately with the Atlanta business community and continue our growth trajectory,” said Michael.

Koporc added, “I have deep appreciation for our customers in Georgia and the talented team of bankers at Fifth Third that support them. I am excited about the opportunity to rejoin the team in Atlanta, and am looking forward to making a difference for the community once again.”

Koporc’s background includes more than two decades in financial services prior to joining Fifth Third. He served in various executive leadership roles with First Union National Bank, Wachovia and Wells Fargo. In addition to consumer banking, wealth management and commercial banking, he delivered corporate banking and capital markets services throughout six states as the regional executive in Greater Virginia. He began his career as a commercial banker in his hometown of Orlando, Florida.

While previously in Atlanta, Koporc served on the Metro Atlanta Chamber Board of Advisors. He also served on the board of the Downtown Atlanta Development Partnership and the board of the Fernbank Museum of Natural History, and as a member of the Lead Gifts Committee for the Woodruff Arts Center. He has long made community service a priority, as demonstrated by his board and advisory roles with the University of Virginia Memorial Center. Koporc was a class of 2014 graduate of Leadership Atlanta.

Koporc holds a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration from the University of Florida and a master’s degree in Business Administration from the University of Central Florida, both with honors.
