Since joining IBC in 1975, Nixon has been instrumental in International Bancshares Corporation's ranking as the largest minority-founded bank organization in the United States, one of the largest independent banks in Texas and Oklahoma. Nixon's knowledge in all areas of banking was pivotal in the development of IBC's extensive acquisition and expansion efforts. The IBC family of banks has assets of $16 billion with 167 full-service branches and 257 ATMs throughout the 75 communities in Texas and Oklahoma that IBC serves. IBC's strategic development designed by Nixon and his leadership team is best summed up in the company's credo, "We Do More."

That "Good Neighbor" tribute describes Dennis Nixon's career-long economic development efforts along the Texas/ Mexico border and highlights his work toward goodwill, close ties and binational prosperity between the U.S. and Mexico. His track record of helping small businesses grow and expand, spans more than four decades. His "We Do More" attitude has driven him to bring border residents and communities together because he knows that communities can't move forward unless they move together. That's why he helped create and start advocacy organizations like the Association of South Texas Communities, Texas Border Coalition, Border Trade Alliance and the Alliance for Security and Trade, to name a few. During his tenure on the board of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, he was the only director from the southern border of the United States, providing a unique and special perspective to the Chamber's legislative agenda and advocacy efforts. Nixon is currently a member of the U.S.-Mexico CEO Dialogue, an elite group of U.S. and Mexican chief executives whose members address core issues in the bilateral relationship between the two countries.
