Centric Bank has been named one of the Top Teams in American Banker’s program highlighting the Most Powerful Women in Banking.

The Centric Bank leadership team, 67 percent of whom are women, has been lauded for its expansion into suburban Philadelphia markets with a loan production office and newly opened financial center in Devon, technology enhancements, and successful capital raise efforts.

Centric is one of American Banker’s five Top Teams; the others are Citigroup, U.S. Bancorp, BMO Financial, and Zions Bancorp.

“Our team’s triumphs are the direct result of their passion and customer-first principles,” said Patricia (Patti) A. Husic, Centric Bank’s President and CEO. “My most critical management decision in growing the bank is hiring and retaining top talent. Each of the women on my team offers extraordinary skills and brings creative and innovative solutions to our customers’ challenges. They’re answering how we can grow stronger, how we can reach the next asset size, and how we can finance more job creators.”

The 2019 Centric Bank Top Team – which includes Husic, Sandra Schultz, Leslie Meck, Kimberly Turner, Christine Pavlakovich, Andrea Ahern, Veronica Rogers, Molly O’Keefe, Stacy Beeler, Jan Hastings, Cheryl Tucci, and Flow Lynch – will be honored on Thursday, Oct. 3 at an awards dinner in New York City.

“When choosing a Top Team, our selection committee looks beyond bank performance, robust financial growth, and loan volume to determine how financial teams are promoting, including, and reaching women,” said Bonnie McGeer, executive editor of American Banker and chair of the Most Powerful Women in Banking program. “We were impressed with Centric Bank’s ongoing commitment to hire and promote women into leadership roles, as well as their efforts to court female customers.”

Now in its 17th year, the Most Powerful Women in Banking recognizes women for their impact on their company, the financial industry, and the community at large, as well as for their leadership skills and innovation in the face of professional challenges.
