Tray Mounce, a longtime Houston banking executive, has been named executive vice president at San Antonio-based Vantage Bank. His hiring comes as the Texas-based bank launches its expansion into the Houston market. Mounce will serve as co-president of the Houston market alongside recently hired Cody Canno, also an executive vice president.
Mounce has more than 32 years of banking industry experience, primarily in the Houston market, working with privately held businesses. His expertise includes trade financing, real estate acquisition/investment, aircraft financing, cash management/treasury solutions, fiduciary escrow services and other traditional banking products/services. He most recently served as senior vice president at Texas Capital Bank.
“[Mounce’s] dedication to serving and guiding small to medium-sized middle market entrepreneurs and their families through the business life cycle truly aligns with our company’s focus on building meaningful, long-term relationships with our clients,” says Jeff Sinnott, president and CEO.
Vantage Bank announced its Houston expansion plans in November 2022 with a temporary location in the Galleria area and plans for two full-service branch locations in central Houston and the Woodlands in the near future. Sinnott says he expects Houston to become Vantage Bank’s largest Texas market.
Established in 1923, Vantage Bank serves the Rio Grande Valley, San Antonio, Laredo, El Paso, Fort Worth, Hondo and Refugio.
