Sydney “Syd” Whitlock, president of NWSB, Charlestown, has been appointed to the Community Depository Institutions Advisory Council at the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis.
Established in 2011, the St. Louis Fed’s CDIAC is composed of 12 executives of smaller financial institutions headquartered across the Federal Reserve’s Eighth District. The Council provides input to the St. Louis Fed president on the economy, lending conditions and other issues of interest to community depository institutions.
The bank issued a statement responding to the announcement calling it “more than an honor” for Whitlock. “It ensures that the voice of a true community bank — rooted in relationships and local impact — is represented in conversations that help shape economic understanding across the region. A well-earned seat at the table.”
