TAMPA, Fla., Aug. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Argent Institutional Trust Company (AITC), a Tampa-based trust company and leading provider of corporate and institutional trust services, today announced the addition of three seasoned financial professionals to its Credit Tenant Lease (CTL) trust solutions team. Todd H. Duncan has joined as managing director and will lead CTL new business development. Alan D.

Prior to joining Argent, Duncan, Doty and Pasillas each spent a significant portion of their careers at Wells Fargo and later at Computershare, following its 2021 acquisition of Wells Fargo's corporate trust business. Duncan led a team managing business line projects, while Doty and Pasillas served as primary relationship managers in the administration of the CTL portfolio.
