"Ken" Lewis (born April 9, 1947, grew up in Walnut Grove, Mississippi) is the current CEO, President, and former Chairman of Bank of America, the largest bank in the United States, positions he has held since the retirement of Hugh McColl in 2001. He joined the organization (at that time NCNB) as a credit analyst in 1969, and served as the head of both international and domestic operations during his tenure at NationsBank. He is a graduate of Georgia State University, where he earned a bachelor of arts degree in finance from J. Mack Robinson College of Business. He is also a graduate of the executive program at Stanford University. Lewis was named "Banker of the Year" in 2001, and was the same year honored as "Top Chief Executive Officer," according to US Banker. In 2007, Lewis was listed among Time Magazine's 100 Most Influential People in the world by Time Magazine. He was again named "Banker of the Year" in 2008. He is a member of the Financial Services Roundtable and the Financial Services Forum; the Fifth District’s representative on the Federal Advisory Committee; a member of the board and the executive committee and past chairman of United Way of Central Carolinas, Inc. ; a member of the Committee to Encourage Corporate Philanthropy; a director of the Homeownership Education and Counseling Institute; vice chairman of the Corporate Fund Board of The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts; and past chairman of the National Urban League. While CEO of Bank of America in 2007, Kenneth D. Lewis earned a total compensation of $20,404,009, which included a base salary of $1,500,000, a cash bonus of $4,250,000, stocks granted of $11,065,798, and options granted of $3,376,000. In 2008, he earned a total compensation of $9,003,467, which included a base salary of $1,500,000, stocks granted of $4,255,012, and options granted of $2,973,330. In late 2008, he engineered the takeover of Merrill Lynch for $50 billion.

- Kenneth Lewis ist ein US-amerikanischer Manager. Lewis war sieben Jahre alt, als seine Eltern sich trennten. Während der Schulzeit unterstützte er seine allein erziehende Mutter mit Gelegenheitsjobs. Danach studierte Lewis Wirtschaftswissenschaften an der Georgia State University und schloss 1969 mit dem Bachelor ab. Danach begann er als Kreditanalyst bei der North Carolina National Bank mit Hauptsitz in Charlotte (North Carolina), die sich später in NationsBank umbenannte und 1998 durch Kauf der BankAmerica zur größten Bank der USA, der Bank of America, wurde. Lewis durchlief im Institut mehrere Karrierestationen des Unternehmens- und Privatkundengeschäfts, bevor er 1999 Chief Operating Officer der Bank of America wurde. 2001 nahm er als Nachfolge von Hugh McColl zusätzlich die Position des CEO ein. 2005 wurde Lewis Präsident (chairman). Gegenwärtig ist Lewis Präsident und CEO der Bank of America. Für seine expansive Unternehmenspolitik im Jahre 2008, als er die rund 50 Mrd. US-Dollar schwere Übernahme der Investmentbank Merrill Lynch und des Hypothekenfinanzierers Countrywide durch die Bank of America verantwortete, erntete er zunächst Zustimmung; so erhielt er von der Zeitschrift American Banker den Titel Banker des Jahres 2008. Seit Januar 2009 kommt es jedoch zu Rücktrittsforderungen gegen Lewis. Einer der Vorwürfe von der Aktionärsseite lautet, dass Lewis zum Zeitpunkt der Hauptversammlung Anfang Dezember 2008 (auf der die Übernahme von Merrill Lynch noch hätte verhindert werden können) bereits von den hohen Verlusten der Merrill Lynch im vierten Quartal 2008 in Höhe von rund 15 Mrd. Dollar gewusst haben soll.
