“Capital is the life blood of small and mid sized business growth which,
in turn, is the engine that fuels the U.S. economy. In the early years of
The Home Depot, one insightful commercial banker swam against the tide,
saw the potential of our business and agreed to finance our early store
growth. Without him, we might never have gotten off the ground.
As the banking world has consolidated, relationships have been replaced
by formulas, and too many banks seem to make their decisions “by the numbers."
I invested in RockBridge because I believe they are different. Quite simply,
I believe RockBridge is a bank willing to look beyond formulas to relationships.
And relationship banking can be the difference for a growing business."
