"Despite the challenging economic environment and recent obstacles that financial institutions have faced over the past year, First Resource Bank continues to shine both locally and throughout the country," said Bank President and CFO, Lauren Ranalli. "Our repeat presence on American Banker's annual list of the top 200 performing publicly traded community banks was only amplified by our significant increase in the ranks, moving fifty-eight notches into the top 100 performers."
