Old Second Bancorp Director Dennis Klaeser Resigns, Board Size Reduced
Summary
Dennis Klaeser has resigned from Old Second Bancorp's Board and the Bank Board, effective June 5, 2026. Klaeser, who joined in 2021, served on critical committees including Executive, Audit, Compensation, Risk, and Capital. The company stated his resignation was not due to any disagreement and does not plan to immediately fill the vacancy, reducing the board size by one. This departure is notable for a financial institution, especially following recent Q1 results that showed increased nonperforming loans and credit loss provisions, as it represents a loss of experienced oversight from key committees.
