Titan Bank Hires Kert Stevens; will cover the state of Utah

DALLAS - May 13, 2013 - PRLog -- Dallas, TX Titan Bank, NA announces the hiring of Kert Stevens to join its rapidly expanding small business lending group.  Prior to joining Titan Bank, Stevens was with Capital Community Bank since 2006 and Far West Bank from 2000 to 2006.  Over the last several years Kert has averaged over $10MM in real estate based loans on an annual basis.  The addition represents a further investment into Titan Bank’s substantial origination capabilities in the SBA and USDA lending arena.

Pete O’Hern, Titan Bank’s National Sales Manager comments, "Kert has done a great job of booking the types of loans that are attractive to Titan Bank in his previous BDO positions.  Our quick turn times in credit and closing, along with our flexible pricing, will position Kert to be a significant contributor to the Titan Team in 2013.  Kert will be a major catalyst in opening up our lending operations in the Utah and surrounding markets.”   Stevens added, “I am excited to join a very entrepreneurial sales team of at Titan Bank.  I am looking forward to increasing Titan Banks market share in the state of Utah as well as the surrounding markets.  Titan brings a laser focused approach to SBA lending in general, with specific reference to an expedited credit and closing process that is second to none in the industry.  I am looking forward to sharing this approach with my referral sources as well as my customers."

This expansion enables Titan to extend its lead in the SBA, USDA and small business lending sector.  As noted recently, Titan Bank received the US Government Small Business Administration’s Rising Star Award for the SBA’s Dallas Region.  The award is the latest recognition for Titan Bank, one of the few remaining chartered banks that focus primarily on loans to small companies.  Titan Bank intends to continue its expansion in this sector with the hiring of several more Business Development Officers nationwide in 2013.
