Good morning, Bank Slaters!

It got really cold really fast here in North Carolina. Sweater and soup season seems to finally be here. This week, I am in Memphis meeting with my SRM colleagues and planning for key initiatives in 2024. What are you working on for the new year? Please let me know at info@thebankslate.com.
