In a recent conversation with @MaxfieldOnBanks, our founder, @FitzPGF, shared reflections on his visit to the @NYSE to ring the closing bell. He also recounted a story about his last time on the trading floor, offering a unique perspective tied to a significant moment in his career.

[Maxfield on Banks @MaxfieldOnBanks]

the Fitzgeralds are one of the great Chicago banking families that have since invested in banks elsewhere and even sold a bank (or two) to aaron graft at triumph

never have I been asked more thoughtful questions by a banker and never have my answers been listened to more intently

for it comes to pass that Peter Fitzgerald and I share an almost identical banking philosophy

thank you again, sir @FitzPGF
