Financial Matters: Going local

The current economy has a lot of people thinking twice before signing on with a new bank or credit union.

Lewis Smith, VP of Finance with BayPort Credit Union, is here to put your mind at ease. Local banks and credit unions, like BayPort, keep their lending decisions locally with a real person here in the area who actually knows the area. Lending decisions are often made in another location and this bias impacts local borrowers.
