The wage hike is part of Charlotte-based BofA’s plan to increase the minimum wage to $25 per hour by 2025, a goal CEO Brian Moynihan announced about a year ago. BofA said the hike will increase annualized salary for full-time employees to more than $45,000.

A company spokesperson said this latest change will affect tens of thousands, or about 15%, of employees. The bank declined to share an investment cost.

As of 2025, BofA will have raised its minimum wage by nearly $14 per hour since 2010.
