Tri Counties Bank welcomes Scott Myers as Head of Wholesale Banking. He will help grow the bank within middle market and specialty banking, commercial banking and business banking segments, as well as treasury management and merchant card services throughout the state of California.
Established in 1975 and with assets of nearly $10 billion, Tri Counties Bank strives to improve the financial success and well-being of their shareholders, customers, communities and employees. With 25 years in banking, Myers joined Tri Counties Bank in September after roles as chief lending officer for a local community bank and as middle market region manager for a global financial institution.
Success in his new position is defined by Myers as more than just statistics and profitability. “Profitability is a byproduct of our relationships in the business communities we serve and, beyond clients and prospective clients, we also build relationships with the nonprofit and economic development communities,” he says. “Success for us is about connecting local, knowledgeable bankers with businesses of all sizes to help them achieve their goals.”
Myers notes that he’s impressed with Tri Counties Bank’s investment of not only money but also time into the nonprofit community. “I’m pleased to be joining a team that not only volunteers more than 11,000 hours in our communities annually, but also invests significant dollars into our local nonprofits through donations and sponsorships.”

As someone who enjoys people and values diversity of thought and connectivity, Myers says, “I endeavor to surround myself with people who can solve issues and accomplish goals. People in my personal life and my professional life know I strive for the success of those around me. That’s in my DNA and a natural fit for Tri Counties Bank as a relationship-based community bank.”
Myers looks forward to helping Tri Counties Bank continue its focus on businesses that are overlooked by larger, corporate banks. “It’s that underserved middle market segment that we’re looking to grow,” he concludes. “Along with all our clients, they’ll benefit greatly from our high-touch relationship banking.”
