Just a PR move. I doubt Brees is telling them how to change their loan and investment portfolios

in a perfect world yes, but in reality thats not always the case, and probably irl there is typically one or two board members that know their business but they are also likely officers for the bank/company. this is a publicity thing and a way to keep Brees and some of his money guaranteed at their bank.

Well, he's made over 200M. He puts his own money into the bank which makes it possible to lend out more. Bank profits, pays him board pay, and probably stock options.
All for doing NOTHING.

This isn't at all like Shaq. Shaq is actually a good businessman....he invests his time with the companies he invests in and has annual meetings with the top brass of each every year.

Yea, this bank's Board of Directors are pretty arrogant or pretty desperate if they think that bringing on a dude who got a tad cleaned in precious stones scam is a solid idea. Sounds like this place has the same issues as most banks, board members need to retire or refresh the group.

how do you feel about sons of politicians kicked out of the military for cocaine use on energy boards?

Brees is a fricking moron. He's a dumb jock who is careless with his money.
He was a great football player though!

He owns a shite ton of successful franchises and has a net worth of $160,000,000.
Hardly a fricking moron. More like business savy.

Yep. Archie Manning was on Iberia Bank’s BOD and Jake Delhomme was/ is on Midsouth Bank’s BOD
Same idea. All PR

Thought the same thing when I saw the Business Report articles. I was like, "wtf does Drew Brees know about running a bank....." Like someone else said, it's just marketing.

Scary to think that some of us here are Directors of Financial Institutions....
