Seacoast Bank Appoints Al Monserrat To Board Of Directors

Monserrat's career spans more than 25 years in large enterprises and entrepreneurial ventures within enterprise software, mobility, cloud, networking and business strategy.  Monserrat became RES Software CEO in April 2015 after serving as Citrix's senior vice president of Worldwide Sales & Service since July 2008.  At Citrix, Monserrat was part of the executive leadership team that grew the company from hundreds of millions to more than $3B in revenue by 2014, and was instrumental in crafting the strategy that helped Citrix grow from a single-product company, to a multi-product industry leader.  He lives in Boca Raton, Fla.

"Seacoast will benefit from Al's superb leadership skills in employing technological change," said Dennis S. Hudson, III, Seacoast chairman and CEO. "We are confident he will make a significant contribution to our transformational strategy that reflects the rapid evolution in today's banking environment."

Monserrat noted, "Seacoast is engaged in reorienting itself around the expectations of today's customers for a convenient, mobile-centered banking experience. I look forward to helping implement this transformation, the positive results of which already are apparent in Seacoast's digital and financial metrics."

About Seacoast's director development program, Hudson noted, "Beginning in 2013, we actively recruited new talent to our board to increase its diversity of thought and experience and better align overall board capability with Seacoast's strategic focus. During this period, we have appointed an independent lead director and, with Al's appointment announced today, have added eight new directors, all of whom have the skills needed to help navigate the changing environment impacting our business.

"As a result, our governance has altered significantly across important aspects, creating a vibrant board culture with an unrelenting focus on creating shareholder value," he added.
