You may have heard in the news that plans are underway for First Capital Bank to soon merge with and into Park Sterling Bank. Because you are a valued First Capital Bank client, I wanted you to hear directly from me how excited we are about this change.

 

Park Sterling is a bank that shares the same values you have come to count on from First Capital Bank, especially a passion for personal service, long-term relationships and local decision-making. We recognize that those values have allowed us to earn your trust and your business.

 

Whether you have banked with us for many years, or simply a few months, I hope you’ve felt that passion in action. We believe our focus on the customer has proven to be at the heart of what keeps us connected to the individuals, families, communities and businesses that we are proud and honored to serve.

 

As part of Park Sterling Bank, we’ll be able to offer a much broader array of innovative financial products, services and technology solutions -- all delivered right here, locally, by the same friendly faces in the same convenient locations . . . plus more.

 

Soon, you may see new signs going up on our branches around Richmond and in Ashland. I hope that, like me, you’ll recognize the change as a very positive one, where we can continue to provide you with customized personal and business solutions (something Park Sterling proudly calls Answers You Can Bank On®) for many years to come.

 

On behalf of all of us at First Capital Bank, and our colleagues at Park Sterling, please accept my best wishes for a happy, healthy and prosperous 2016. As always, thank you for the continued opportunity to be your bank.

 

With warm regards,

 

 

Bob Watts

President and CEO
