Rosemont, IL (PRWEB) March 20, 2016 -- Signature Bank, Chicago’s fastest growing independently owned business bank, kicked off the AM 560 Business Tour with a live broadcast on Primary Day in Illinois from their downtown branch in the 191 N. Wacker building. The building, known as the Wigwam and noted as the original site of the 1860 Republican Convention where Abraham Lincoln was nominated for President, served as the backdrop for Tuesday’s live broadcast of AM 560’s “Chicago’s Morning Answer” with Dan Proft and Amy Jacobson.

The Signature Bank Business Tour turns the spotlight on businesses that are growing and thriving in Chicago and the surrounding area. AM 560 chose select businesses from a group of applicants to be part of the Business Tour. Each selected business has the opportunity to host a live broadcast of the AM 560 morning show from a location of their choice.

“Signature Bank is proud to sponsor AM 560’s Business Tour to show our commitment to the business community in Chicago and surrounding areas,” said Mick O’Rourke, President and CEO of Signature Bank. “It’s just one way that we can publicly express our support for the growing entrepreneurial scene right here in the city.”

Signature Bank has deep roots in Chicago’s middle-market commercial banking arena. “It’s a fun market to be in,” Kevin Bastuga, Co-founder and Executive Vice President of Signature Bank said during his interview with radio host, Dan Proft. “There is a tremendous industrial base in Chicago along with hard-working people and that’s who we’re here to support.”

The Signature Bank Business Tour will continue through May with live broadcasts on AM 560 of “Chicago’s Morning Answer.”
