Creating economic opportunity in the region
Community Reinvestment Act Officer
|
As South Jersey natives, we can agree that our home has some unique assets - from access to shore points, to a vigorous agricultural industry, to a strong historic and cultural heritage. However, our region has also faced hardships due to the loss of industrial, manufacturing, gaming, and hospitality job opportunities, in addition to the impact of the Great Recession of the late 2000s. Despite these hardships, South Jersey residents have proven resilient and committed to creating new economic opportunities.
At M&T Bank, we understand the importance of supporting the economic development of the communities we serve. Our commitment has always been to strengthen the financial health of our clients and the very regions that they live, work, and play. That's why we've chosen to support THRIVE South Jersey and the New Jersey Community Capital with a $100,000 Community Development Project grant.
THRIVE South Jersey provides financial products to create and support economic opportunity for targeted areas in Gloucester, Cumberland, Salem, and Atlantic counties. Like M&T Bank, THRIVE believes that effective economic development begins when residents are connected with quality job opportunities that promote and allow for growth. The organization works to create these opportunities through loans, credit enhancements, and equity investments that support local small businesses and job creation initiatives.
M&T Bank's Community Reinvestment Act Officer for New Jersey, Alle Ries, was elected as New Jersey Community Capital's Board Chair in September 2017.

It's important to reach out to your clients and just say hi. You shouldn't pick up the phone or send an email, and always be in sales mode. Learn about your clients interests; if they like movies, send over some of your favorites. Getting to know your clients personally will set you apart from the rest.
