Interactive Q&A: Ted Awerkamp, President and CEO of Mercantile Bancorp

Ezra:

I am absolutely seeing additional opportunities for MBR, and I am seeing and hearing of the current climate bringing forth an unusual number of sellers or merging opportunities to the market.

That being said, the challenge to us as a small-cap banking company is to protect our capital and invest wisely in markets and bankers that best positions MBR for quality, profitable growth. I purposefully did not include the word rapid.

Thank you for your question.

Ted
