Southside Bank ranked in elite status

TYLER — Southside Bank has been named one of the Top 10 Banking Powerhouses in America by Bank Director. On Wednesday President and CEO Lee Gibson told KTBB, “It is a team effort. I am the one who gets to speak about it and talk about it, and I am privileged to do that, but they are the ones that made it happen over all of these years. I could not be more proud of them and I tell them all of the time. I tell them you are our most important asset, because with out you we don’t have customers and without customers we don’t have a bank.” The 2021 RankingBanking study of performance powerhouse banks also ranked Southside as one of the top three banks in America for creating long-term value, named the board of directors the best in Texas, and identified Southside as the best bank to work for in Texas.
