Four months after arriving in Richmond, a small Tennessee-based bank from Dolly Parton’s home town has struck a deal that it says will help it expand its reach locally.
Sevier County Bank, which expanded into Richmond last fall as Southern Community Bank, is set to be acquired by SmartBank, a much larger competitor from its home state.
While the bulk of both banks’ assets and presence is in Tennessee, John Presley, a longtime Richmond banker who serves as SCB’s executive chairman, said the deal will accelerate the growth SCB had planned for Richmond.

Gradually, then suddenly.
It is the way that Hemingway penned the process of going bankrupt: first comes a series of incremental steps which bring you closer to bankruptcy, until reality hits you and a sudden realization of what has occurred dawns upon you.
This process can be thought of as a universal one: it applies to many things in life, like achieving success, declining health or the once-in-a-lifetime emergence of a brand-new asset class.
Across the “gradually, then suddenly” spectrum, Bitcoin is inching closer and closer to the “suddenly” part and this quarter is an immaculate example of that.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (WVIR) - If you have not gotten your stimulus check yet, you are not alone. The differences between why some have already gotten the $1,400 payment and why some are still waiting comes down to your bank and delivery method.
The new payments have an effective date of March 17, according to the U.S. Department of the Treasury. It’s an automated payment, and the Internal Revenue Service has already sent the banks the information for them.
