Touchmark National Bank Celebrates One Year of Service

Touchmark National Bank celebrates one year of exemplary bank service on Jan. 28, 2009.

In its inaugural year of operation, Touchmark has accomplished much, despite one of the most nationally-challenging years in banking history.

•    In January 2008, Touchmark received regulatory approval and opened for business at its Norcross, Ga. headquarters.
•    On Mar. 10, the company opened its Abbotts Bridge Branch in Duluth, Ga.  The Abbotts Bridge Branch is managed by Debbie Dill.
•    On May 21, Touchmark conducted its first shareholders’ meeting, held at the Atlanta Athletic Club.  
•    On Oct. 15, the Peachtree Pavilion Branch opened in Doraville, Ga.  The Doraville branch is managed by Vitra Darden.
•    Touchmark completed successful safety and soundness examinations by both the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) and the Federal Reserve during the fourth quarter of 2008.
•    Through the course of the past year, the company assembled a talented team of 20 bankers with more than 275 years of combined banking experience.
•    Touchmark finished December in a strong financial position with several hundred valuable clients.

Having completed one of Georgia’s largest-ever community bank capital campaigns in 2008, Touchmark National Bank remains positioned for success throughout 2009.

“We look forward to serving our community throughout the next year with a spirit of optimism and a continued focus on soundness, profitability and growth,” said Bill Short, CEO.  “Join us and experience a new standard in banking.”
