WASHINGTON, Sept. 22, 2016 -- The Conference of State Bank Supervisors (CSBS), the nationwide organization of banking and financial regulators from all 50 states and U.S. territories, has announced the appointment of Midland States Bancorp (Nasdaq:MSBI) CEO Leon Holschbach to serve a two-year term on the organization’s Bankers Advisory Board.
Mr. Holschbach was recommended for appointment by his home state bank commissioner Secretary Bryan A. Schneider of the Illinois Department of Financial & Professional Regulation.
“I’m pleased to welcome Leon to the Bankers Advisory Board,” said Schneider. “I think he will be a great asset and will provide valuable input as state regulators consider financial policies impacting community banks.”
“CSBS values the perspectives community bankers bring to policy discussions that may impact state-chartered financial institutions,” CSBS President and CEO John W. Ryan said. “For this reason, we have had a longstanding history of seeking input from Bankers Advisory Board members on pressing public policy matters,” said Ryan.
Leon Holschbach said, “The CSBS provides our community bank a seat-at-the-table to help initiate discussions concerning policies that heavily impact our company, our customers, and like-minded financial institutions in our region. I look forward to actively participating on this Advisory Board and I am honored to work alongside this dynamic group of community banking leaders.”
