Equitable Bank chief executive officer Andrew Moor died unexpectedly over the weekend. He was 65.

The bank confirmed his death in a statement Tuesday morning and said it will name an interim CEO this morning.

“Our thoughts and sympathies are with the entire Moor family at this difficult time,” a bank spokesperson said in a statement.

“Andrew was a visionary leader, and the world of banking in Canada is a better place because of his efforts. Whether Canadians knew of him or were EQ Bank or Equitable Bank customers or not, they benefitted from his relentless belief that Canadians deserve more. He will be deeply missed.”
