IBC Bank–Eagle Pass recently announced the promotions of three bank associates in various departments.

Rosalba Duran has been promoted to bank officer in the retail division. She has 24 years of banking experience, 15 of those years with IBC Bank. One of her favorite pastimes is working with community nonprofit organizations as a member of the bank’s employee advisory board. Duran earned her associate degree in management from Southwest Texas Junior College.

Silvia Montemayor Cobo was promoted to vice president in the international department. She has been in banking for 29 years and with IBC Bank since 2002. She enjoys performing community work with the Eagle Pass Library Foundation and as a member of the Eagle Pass Main Street Project.

Jose Baldemar Palafox has been promoted to vice president in the commercial lending department. He has served within the commercial lending division at IBC Bank for 15 years.

He also coaches the Eagles softball team at Liberty Elementary School as well as the little league softball team.

“These employees live our ‘Do More’ mantra and are proven experts within their respective lines of business,” says Hector J. Cerna, president. “Their knowledge of internal functions and customer service, as well as their dedication to going beyond banking, makes their promotions well-deserved.”
