San Antonio-based Crockett National Bank had the largest percentage increase in commercial and industrial loan volume during the first quarter among local banks, according to data from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. Though booming growth in the real estate industry has had an impact, Crockett CEO Todd Huckabee told the Business Journal the increase has a lot to do with personnel.
“It’s somewhat related to real estate related companies. But it also has to do with hiring,” Huckabee said.
