On Nov. 5, 2026, FHLBank Indianapolis announced that it hired Patricia Herndon of the Michigan Bankers Association (MBA) to head the Bank's government relations function.

Effective Nov. 16, Herndon, former EVP and chief policy officer for the MBA, will begin her role as Government Relations Officer (GRO) after more than 15 years in key positions for the Michigan banking trade group.

As GRO, Herndon will work to expand the Bank's mission of providing reliable liquidity and supporting affordable housing and community development by elevating the organization's political footprint across its two-state district of Indiana and Michigan, as well as strengthening relationships with congressional members and key policy thought leaders in Washington, D.C.

"Patricia brings strong leadership and decades of advocacy and policy experience to the table," President and CEO Brendan McGrath said. "That will be key as we look to advance our mission and the important role our organization plays in the economic stability of Indiana and Michigan."
