From 1986 to 1993, he was chairman of Chase Manhattan Bank Austria, and from 1993 to 1994, chairman of Crédit Lyonnais Austria.
In 1997, Treichl became Chairman of the Board of Erste Bank, and since 2008, he has been Chief Executive Officer of Erste Group Bank AG. The largest shareholder of Erste Group is ERSTE Stiftung of which Treichl has been chairman since the end of 2012. ERSTE Stiftung is one of the largest non-profit organisations in Europe.

Covid
Speaking of the role of the banks during Covid, he said in April 2020 that "The daily business of Austrian banks since the outbreak of the coronavirus has been not only to support the various parts of the government package of measures, but also to support companies in dealing with the collateral damage of the COVID-19 crisis", and added: "As long as there is neither medicine nor vaccination against the coronavirus, injections by the governments are needed. The Austrian federal government has administered the right dose in a timely manner and in an enormous volume."[8]
In July 2021 Treichl spoke out unequivocally in favor of a general mandatory "vaccination" on the public television channel Ö1. "Yes," he answered without ifs and buts to the question; obviously, politics, the media and business together have not been able to convince the people who do not want to be vaccinated that they pose a danger to everyone, he opined.[9]
