Where has 2022 gone? It seemed like yesterday we were together in Roanoke for the 2021 convention. At that point in time, we were celebrating the opportunity to be back in person, lamenting excess deposits and the need for more quality loan assets. The economy appeared solid, even if supported by significant stimulus out of Washington, D.C. Inflation was deemed “transitory,” and there was an expectation of stable economic conditions for quarters and maybe years ahead.

One of the subtle, constant pleasures in the work I do for you involves providing a brief welcome for the many education events created, organized and/or facilitated by our talented VP, Katharine Garner. In preparing a recent welcome for the bankers taking part in our popular Essentials of Banking program, it struck me that the purposeful dissemination of knowledge illuminates the darkness in two significantly different ways. Or maybe I’m looking at two sides of the same coin.
