A confidential intake for community and regional banks considering entry into a market where they have no presence. Registering starts the conversation and commits you to nothing.
What happens next
- A read on that market, emailed to you: who holds the deposits, how concentration has moved over the past five years, and which institutions have gained and lost share.
- A call from a senior recruiter about what you are trying to build and the team you have in mind.
- If the timing is right, we go to work: identifying the top producers in that market, reaching out, and finding which of them would consider an opportunity with a bank entering from outside it.
Confidentiality
A senior recruiter sees what you register. It is never displayed on this site, listed anywhere, or shared with another bank.
Nothing is presented to potential candidates until you have confirmed the need is live and told us to proceed. Potential candidates hear high level facts first, and the bank's name only when you agree to it.
Who This Is For
Community and regional banks: FDIC-insured institutions under $100 billion in assets. The bank list here is drawn from the FDIC institutions directory, so nearly every institution in the country is in it.
This is for entry into a market where your bank has no presence today. If you are filling a vacancy or are looking to expand in a market you are already in, that is a different conversation: use the contact form and we will follow up.
How We Work It
Established bankers open to launching a market presence for an out-of-market bank come to us through this site, and we have relationships across the country. Beyond that, we have the experience to identify and recruit top commercial banking talent in any market. You may hear from us in a week, or in four months. Whichever it is, you will hear the truth about the timing.
Terms are handled on the call, before any introduction, at the same schedule as our direct engagements.
