First Oklahoma Bank has leveraged Jack Henry’s digital commercial lending solution for two years and recently added the new consumer capabilities. Christy Alexander, senior vice president and manager of loan origination and servicing for the $900 million-asset institution, explained, “Our consumer loan portfolio significantly grew last year, and we expect that pace to continue into 2021 and beyond.
