This quarter, along with the many quarters that have preceded it, continues to show how that approach is playing out. Since I joined the board in 2021, I have never been more excited about our position in the market. When rates were low, Solera National Bank waited for the right opportunity to deploy capital. Over the last few years, we've found excellent opportunities to invest in, and we're running an extremely efficient shop.
