As a dynamic and forward-thinking specialist bank, we are continuously improving and adapting to a constantly evolving environment, and Michael’s skills and experience will be particularly valuable as UTB begins the next leg of its exciting journey.
“Although we still have Rob Sherr on board for an extended period, I would like to take this opportunity to thank him on behalf of UTB and the board of directors for his great contribution to the continued success of the Bank.
