Breaking: Dogwood State Bank is buying Community First of South Carolina. It's a big deal, as in addition to deposits, Dogwood gets a stronger foothold in SC.
Dogwood, you may recall, is a new Carolinas-focused bank headquartered in #Raleigh, the product of a handful of ex-Yadkin bankers and the former Sound Bank.
This is the first acquisition in the bank's history, though as its top exec told me, it's basically been adding a community bank a year just through organic growth.
If analysts are right about 2024, we'll see more deals like this. And yes, it matters. Community banks fund... well, the community. And the sector has seen a lot of changes in the past year, so what happens next matters to local businesses, likely including yours.
