First Financial Bankshares, a Texas-based financial holding company, plans to open new bank branches in Fort Worth and Odessa, Texas, to expand the services in these markets. The banks will operate from the company’s existing First Financial Trust & Asset Management Company, trust offices in both cities.
In Fort Worth, the private bank branch will share quarters with First Financial Trust & Asset Management. Konrad Halbert, executive vice president, is manager of the Fort Worth office. In Odessa, the bank branch will be at the trust office. Barbara Hill, senior vice president is manager of the Odessa office, said the company.
Scott Dueser, president and CEO of First Financial Bankshares, said: “This decision is in response to frequent requests from customers to open branches in these markets. Providing banking services in Fort Worth and the Permian Basin region will result in greater convenience and customer service for our valued customers, including our trust customers, in these markets.”
