When

The success of the Texas banking industry lies with the relationships we have with our customers and our communities. As banking continues to be at the forefront of policy discussions in both Austin and Washington, DC, it is more important than ever for bankers to be tuned in to and engaged with lawmakers, regulators, and thought leaders to ensure the adoption and implementation of policies impacting the banking industry – bankers not only understand a policy’s impact on their business, more importantly, they understand how it will impact their customers’ access to capital and credit. TBA’s Texas Tour provides bankers with the opportunity to hear the latest from Capitol Hill and the Texas Capitol and participate in discussions on how the industry can best position itself for success. Heading into the November mid-terms, the 90th Session of the Texas Legislature, and the 120th Congress, banker engagement is critically important because the relationships we have with candidates and officeholders will help ensure we have a seat at the table during policy negotiations on issues that will impact the future of our industry – make sure to reserve your seat at an upcoming Texas Tour stop today!
