We’re excited that he will be leading the Houston market in his new role.”

Schroder joined PlainsCapital in 2020 as president shortly before opening The Woodlands branch at 1699 Research Forest Drive. He has nearly 40 years of financial services experience and spent over a decade expanding North Houston operations for multiple local banks before joining PlainsCapital.

“I’m looking forward to serving Texas entrepreneurs and families as PlainsCapital’s Houston region chairman,” said Schroder. “I’m proud to support the Bank’s commitment to offering best-in-class products and guidance, while supporting our communities.”
