"That's why I was drawn to Bank of Canton," Bokon continued. "It has a very collaborative environment. The commercial lending, credit, and operations teams are all together under the same roof, and we're willing to explore all options to get financing arrangements approved and turned around quickly. It’s a great place to be."
