Special Banking promotion

PresidentTy Warren, Community Bank President for BancorpSouth in Little Rock since 2008, is a 24 year banking veteran. A native of Natchez, Mississippi, Warren is a graduate of the University of Mississippi with a BA degree in Bank-ing and Finance and Managerial Finance, and a gradu-ate of the LSU School of Banking. Notable accomplishments under Warrens leadership in-clude impressive loan growth and opening a new branch in Hot Springs in 2010.

Why I Love It My entire career has been devoted to banking. Noth-ing excites me more than being actively engaged in a community, establishing relationships with customers and providing outstanding customer service.

Warren continued, Little Rock is a fascinating city and residents here have good banking choices. My goal is to show them that BancorpSouth is their best choice.

BancorpSouthBancorpSouth has four locations in Little Rock 2800 Cantrell Road, 2201 Rodney Parham Road, 1211 South Shackleford Road and 17703 Cantrell Road (High-way 10) and one location in Hot Springs, 3101 Central Avenue.

Whats Unique For more than 135 years BancorpSouth has met the banking needs of the communities it serves through a se-ries of community banks managed with an entrepreneur-ial spirit. Headquartered in Tupelo, Mississippi, Bancorp-South has 286 locations in eight states, giving customers the regional banking convenience with the community banking service they deserve.
