As state and local leaders ease some of the limitations put in place due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we’re pleased to welcome you back into the lobbies of most of our financial centers.

But while we’re happy that our local economies are gradually reopening for business, we also recognize that our “new normal” is quite different than what we experienced just a few weeks ago.

 

At Hancock Whitney, the health and safety of our clients and associates is our top priority, which is why we’ve instituted a number of important steps to keep you and our associates safe:

  • CDC guidelines for cleaning and sanitizing our lobbies are being observed.
  • High-touch areas, including counters, door handles, client waiting areas and restrooms, are being cleaned and sanitized frequently throughout the business day.
  • Walk-in traffic in our lobbies is limited to the number of people that can safely maintain social distancing of six feet.
  • We’ve installed health shields at our desks and teller counters, and we’re providing hand-sanitizing supplies and using floor markers to designate safe social distancing.
  • When you visit our financial centers, we request that you wear a face covering where required by state and local officials. Our associates may also wear masks for protection according to CDC recommendations.

Safely serving clients in Financial Centers    

Our drive-thru facilities and banking by appointment continue to be available. To make an appointment with a banker, please contact your local financial center directly. If you’re not able to visit a lobby, we offer many “contactless” ways to bank:

  • Use our Mobile App to deposit checks, check balances, pay bills, transfer money between accounts, and manage alerts.
  • Make contactless purchases in-app, online and in stores with your debit and credit card using the mobile wallet feature on your smartphone.
  • Open a new account online.
  • Visit hancockwhitney.com to check balances, pay bills, apply for a loan or credit card, transfer money between accounts, and manage alerts.
  • Stop by our ATMs to get cash or check balances.

 

As always, if there is anything we can help you with, from opening an account to setting up mobile or online banking, please contact us:

 

Moving forward together

Helping our clients feel confident about their financial futures is our most important job, and we’re committed to doing that job safely. Just as we have for over 120 years, we’re working together to care for businesses, families and our communities. Please continue to visit the COVID-19 page on our website for the latest information about special assistance options, government stimulus programs, and CDC recommendations.

 

We are delighted to serve you safely in person, online, or over the phone, and we thank you for your trust in Hancock Whitney.

Labor Day: Honoring and Thanking Our Workforce

In 1949, our bank president, Leo W. Seal, Sr., addressed what was then our entire team of 60 associates and their guests at the bank’s 50th anniversary banquet. He thanked associates, many of whom were long tenured, for their hard work, which had helped bring the bank to that milestone, and lauded their continued commitment to the company, clients, and community.

“Nowhere is there to be found a more loyal, conscientious, sympathetic, able, courteous, and devoted group than we have in our bank. We fill with pride upon the realization of such a wonderful group. Whether they are taken as a whole or as individuals, their fine qualities stand out … We are grateful when we reflect upon the length of time so many of you have been valuable members of this organization,” Mr. Seal stated. 

He also challenged those mid-20th century bankers to carry on core values our founders had set forth just five decades earlier:  Honor & Integrity, Strength & Stability, Commitment to Service, Teamwork, and Personal Responsibility.

She Is...Looking Forward: New Orleans native Liz Hefler embraces new Hancock Whitney leadership role and continued community service

Liz Hefler reached a bit of a crossroads during her time as an economics major at the University of Virginia.

Like many of her classmates, Hefler strongly considered working in the investment sector after graduation. But, a less-than-ideal internship experience made her question that career path and wonder what was next.

“My parents wanted me to come back to New Orleans and encouraged me to pursue a career in traditional finance,” she recalled. “I followed that advice and started at Hancock Whitney right after I graduated. At the time, I thought I would eventually leave to work in a different industry. But, at Hancock Whitney, I was surrounded by a great group of mentors and teammates, plus clients who were entertaining and fun. Twenty years later, I’m still here and I still love it.”

The Dream of Financial Prosperity and How We Are Supporting Our Communities in Achieving It

As we honor the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and reflect on his dream of a more equitable society, it is crucial to acknowledge the persistent challenges that the Black community faces, particularly in achieving financial wellness and building generational wealth. The racial wealth gap remains a stark reality, underscoring the need for concerted efforts to foster economic empowerment and uplift Black Americans across the country.
