CITIZENS THE FRONTRUNNER TO BECOME CELTICS' BANKER
Published September 19, 1997
The Celtics "are likely to move their business to
Citizens Financial Group," sources familiar with the talks
tell Charles Stein of the BOSTON GLOBE. The team is "on the
verge of severing their relationship" with Fleet Financial
Group. Yesterday BankBoston "dropped out of the race" for
the team's account. BankBoston Exec VP Ira Jackson: "We
looked hard at the numbers and simply couldn't make them
work" (BOSTON GLOBE, 9/19).
