Governor Sam Brownback has appointed a former Wichita bank executive to serve as the acting bank commissioner in Kansas.
Deryl Schuster succeeds Judi Stork, who will return to her duties as deputy commissioner.
Schuster served most recently as president and CEO of Midwest Community Bank.
The commissioner works with the state Banking Board to regulate state-chartered banks and trust companies, savings and loan companies, mortgage businesses and other financial institutions.
