Senator Coons joined dozens of TD Bank employees, business leaders, and members of the Delaware delegation Monday to help officially open TD Bank’s Wilmington office, which will handle credit card services for the Cherry Hill, NJ-based bank.
The new center, located at the Hercules Building, currently houses 30 employees, with the goal to grow up to 100.
“The leaders at TD Bank know we have a world class workforce in financial services here in Delaware,” Chris said. “Coupled with our state’s longtime support for the needs of the financial services industry, the First State is the perfect place for TD Bank’s business to grow.”
TD Bank Executive Vice President of Credit Cards Michael Rhodes remarked that the company’s Wilmington facility “will allow us to be even more integrated from a capabilities, distribution, and platform perspective.”
“We are excited about the huge potential that TD brings to Wilmington,” Chris said. “If you think about the strength of TD as a bank, about the strength of its balance sheet, about the strength of its culture, I think we are all confident in its strong future here. All of us see some green in the future today for T.D. Bank in Delaware.”
Chris also remarked on “the great reputation TD Bank has built for giving back to the community.” In addition to opening the new office, TD Charitable Foundation made a $50,000 contribution to the Delaware Financial Literacy Institute.
