Texas Gulf Bank is continuing to grow so that we can best serve our customers throughout the Southeast Texas Gulf Coast region. One tangible way we are growing is by increasing the number of lenders available to discuss financing solutions for your business.

Duy Nguyen has joined our bank as Senior Vice President – Commercial Lending. Duy is officing out of our CityCentre banking center in West Houston. Today, we would like to share how Duy is prepared to support the growth of your business.

How You Can Grow By Working with Duy Nguyen

Duy Nguyen has 15+ years of experience in the banking industry, mainly serving customers in the Greater Houston area. What makes Duy unique is he also has experience on the other side of the table as an investor in rental properties.

Duy’s combination of banking expertise and business experience makes him a valuable asset to business customers who need to speak with someone who truly understands their commercial lending needs.

“I know what it’s like, and I can relate to many customers as they express their needs, goals, and expectations,” says Duy. “I enjoy listening and being a sounding board for a business owner or investor to talk to. I then follow through with my customers to offer the right solutions for their situation.”

As a commercial lender, Duy is knowledgeable about many types of opportunities that businesses and investors may be pursuing. You can rely on Duy for support in the following areas:

Owner occupied commercial properties
Ground-up development
Commercial development
Warehouses
C-Stores
Hotels
Various types of industry-specific opportunities

Whether you are an owner-operator looking to expand, grow, and build your own space, or a real estate investment partner who is seeking financing for a new property, Duy can assess your specific situation and offer a recommendation.

“I enjoy working with clients to guide them toward the right solution that fits their opportunity,” says Duy. “It starts with engaging clients upfront to give them a recommendation based on what I see in the market. Ultimately, each client will make their own decision, but I see value in talking to clients about the opportunities available to them. Building a relationship where they can approach me to discuss their properties is incredibly important.”

The Strength of Community in Commercial Lending

A key reason why Duy Nguyen may be an asset for your business is his extensive knowledge of local markets throughout Houston.

After graduating from the C.T. Bauer College of Business at the University of Houston in 2008, Duy began building relationships with local customers. He served as a senior relationship banker with a large local bank covering the Houston market, built a specialty in consumer and small business lending, and was recognized as a top producing personal relationship banker.

Transitioning to Texas Gulf Bank is a natural fit for Duy because of our bank’s commitment to relationship-based banking to serve the ongoing needs of local business customers.

“I enjoy working for smaller, regional banks that put customers first,” says Duy. “I want customers to be able to reach me when they need to, and Texas Gulf Bank is structured in a way where we are all willing to work together for one common purpose to serve our customers. It’s the right culture where senior management is intentional about supporting me so that I can help my customers in the same way.”

We focus on putting our customers first when presenting them with business loans and commercial lending options. And lenders such as Duy are given the tools they need to directly support customers throughout the lending process.

“I appreciate that I have been put in a position to communicate effectively and make decisions quickly for my customers,” says Duy. “Having the support of a community bank with local decision-makers enables us to deliver on what we promise. My clients appreciate that.”
