RICHMOND, Va. – Primis Bank is proud to announce the promotion of Sam Yoo to Treasurer.
A standout since joining the bank in 2020, Yoo has played a pivotal role in modernizing and streamlining the bank’s treasury operations. A University of Virginia graduate, he first joined Primis as a Financial Analyst and quickly made a name for himself with his keen insight, tireless work ethic and leadership under pressure.
When the previous Treasurer departed, Yoo immediately stepped into the role, taking on additional responsibilities while continuing to lead in his existing capacity. His impact was felt across the organization, offering timely and strategic guidance to every line of business.
“Sam’s talent and dedication have consistently impressed everyone around him,” said Matthew Switzer, Chief Financial Officer at Primis Bank. “He understands both the mechanics and the mission of Primis, and that’s a powerful combination. His leadership, judgment and work ethic have earned the trust of our entire team.”
As Treasurer, Yoo will continue to lead all aspects of the Bank’s treasury function, including balance sheet management, funding strategy, liquidity planning and pricing.
“Primis has given me incredible opportunities to grow and contribute,” said Yoo. “I’m honored to step into this new role and continue supporting our mission to be the bank that gets things done for our customers and communities.”
