Management Shake-Up Continues at Solera in Colorado

Solera National Bancorp (SLRK) continues to go through management changes less than a month after an activist took over the Lakewood, Colo., company's board.

The $168 million-asset company disclosed in a regulatory filing Friday that Robert Fenton had been named its interim president and chief executive. Fenton, who was terminated as Solera's chief financial officer in March, later allied with Michael Quagliano, the company's biggest investor, to oust the board.

Fenton replaced John Carmichael, who was removed from office on Monday. The company also disclosed that Andrew Seaton, chief credit officer at Solera National Bank, resigned on Tuesday.

Fenton is Solera's fifth chief executive since 2008.
