Valley National Bancorp Boosts Regional Growth with Strategic Hires

Valley National Bancorp has appointed new leaders to drive commercial banking expansion in key regional markets, including Curt Lang, Matthew Verney, and Mark Glasky. These targeted executive hires signal a push to strengthen commercial banking operations and accelerate growth strategy. The appointments may address geographic concentration risk in the long run but are unlikely to change near-term exposure to commercial real estate lending, which remains a significant risk to profitability.
