The booming Texas economy is enabling Cullen/Frost Bankers to increase loan growth and raise its dividend, says the company’s CEO Dick Evans. Evans says the state’s business friendly environment is allowing it to grow jobs and not only in the energy sector.

Finally, he says Cullen/Frost plans to grow its branch base along with its mobile applications.
