Moynihan said in an interview with Reuters late Wednesday his primary mandate is to carry out the business plan arranged by his predecessor, and the Charlotte, North Carolina-based banking giant must block out the distractions created in the wake of the financial crisis.
"We need to put the last 18 months behind us," Moynihan said. "Now is the time to execute."
