On March 31, 2026 Huntington National Bank announced it has selected SEI’s Wealth Platform (SWP) to modernize its wealth‑management systems, aiming to streamline technology, operations, and asset‑management processes for its high‑net‑worth client base.
The decision follows Huntington’s recent expansion into the Minneapolis‑Saint Paul market in 2021 and its partnership with Ameriprise Financial in February 2026, underscoring a broader strategy to strengthen its wealth‑management offering. The platform will provide a unified, end‑to‑end solution that includes managed‑household features and SEI LifeYield’s advanced tax‑management tools, which are expected to improve client experience and operational efficiency.
While the announcement does not yet affect Huntington’s financial statements, the bank expects the platform to reduce complexity, lower costs, and enhance its ability to serve high‑net‑worth clients. The transition timeline and cost of implementation have not been disclosed, and the impact on the workforce remains unknown.
Melissa Holding, Huntington’s Director of Wealth Management, said, “At Huntington, we’ve built a strong wealth management business by putting our customers and colleagues first. As we look ahead, our focus remains on sustainable growth, and this partnership with SEI strengthens our ability to deliver on that commitment.” SEI’s Rob Wrzesniewski added, “We are excited to work with the Huntington team to help them deliver a more holistic, tailored wealth experience for advisors and end customers—supporting their growth while reinforcing their role as a strategic financial partner.”
The announcement was made on the same day Huntington Bancshares declared its quarterly cash dividends on preferred stock, but the two events are unrelated. The SEI partnership represents a strategic investment in technology infrastructure that could position Huntington more competitively in the wealth‑management market.
