Rogers Pope Jr., president and chief operations officer for Longview-based Texas Bank and Trust, has been elected to the board of directors of the Independent Community Bankers of America.
The Washington, D.C.-based organization says it serves as the “nation’s voice for community banking.” Pope’s duties with ICBA will include serving as a liaison between independent community bankers in a Texas district and the group’s staff and leadership in Washington.
“I am honored to be elected to this position,” Pope said in a prepared statement. “It gives me a chance to work for community banks all across the country.”
The organization represents about 5,000 member community banks.
