From Bank Director’s 2015 Acquire or Be Acquired Conference: The “New Consolidators” (Video)

To kick things off today, we took a look at those banks reshaping the banking industry.  With M&A providing an avenue for banks to drive improved operating leverage, earnings, efficiency and scale, we focused on the emergence of mid-sized regional banks that are growing through the consolidation of smaller banks.  My thanks to Jack Kopnisky, President & CEO, Sterling National Bank & Sterling Bancorp (NYSE: STL), Ben Plotkin, Vice Chairman of the Board, Stifel Financial Corp (NYSE: SF) and Frank Sorrentino, Chairman & CEO, ConnectOne Bank (NASDAQ: CNOB) for sharing their time and opinions in their session entitled “The New” Consolidators this morning.
