Seaway Bank and Trust Co. Welcomes New President and CEO
Seaway Bank and Trust Company, Chicago’s largest black-owned bank, welcomed its new president and CEO last Friday at a meet and greet reception held in his honor. Darrell B. Jackson (right), 56, former president of Northern Trust’s wealth management department in suburban Illinois, started in his new position this month replacing Walter Grady who led Seaway for more than 30 years before retiring July 31.
Veranda Dickens (left), who became chair of Seaway’s board after the death of her husband, longtime Seaway chairman, Jacoby Dickens, last year, said of the $538 million-asset bank, “Our board of directors and executive teams are taking vital steps to ensure a vibrant future for Seaway, and Darrell’s hiring is a strategically important move that will help us build on our strong heritage and achieve our long-terms goals.”
