Sovereign latest financial institution talking of takeover
Instead of outsourcing a call center or some other department, Sovereign Bank’s corporate officers, Sovereign Bancorp, is looking to sell out the Philadelphia-based financial institution to a foreign company.
Sure, we now live, more than at any point in history, in a global economy, but when it comes to me putting money in my bank, I want to know my bank is All-American. Jingoistic? No. Patriotic? Hardly. Overseas prejudice? Absolutely! When it comes to my money, where it’s kept, who has control over it, and the company that may go belly-up and legally owe – or be able to dodge U.S. laws – is of great interest to me.
