First Financial Bank Enters Bucks and Montgomery Counties; Bill
Byrne Leads Business Banking Introduction
DOWNINGTOWN, Pa., Sept. 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- First Financial Bank has
announced that William Byrne, Senior Vice President of Lending, will lead a
team of Commercial Bankers working in Bucks and Montgomery Counties. First
Financial Bank's new Lending office opened in Plymouth Meeting on September
13th and will serve as headquarters for the team.
"This is an exciting opportunity to bring First Financial Bank's service
orientation to a community of businesses that demand them," remarked Byrne. "It
is our first highly concentrated effort outside of Chester County. Mergers and
local banking changes have left the area's small- and medium- sized businesses
with fewer banking choices. This is the ideal time to introduce First
Financial Bank to businesses looking for that higher level of personalized
service."
Commercial Loan Officers William Rafferty and Ronald Langlois will use the
Plymouth Meeting office as their headquarters. "Bill Rafferty and Ron Langlois
are well-known bankers in their respective regions," noted Byrne. "With their
experience and the Bank's focus on service quality, local businesses will see a
clear difference between First Financial Bank and the other banks in the area.
I believe we will quickly build a reputation as an important business banking
resource in Bucks and Montgomery Counties."
"Bill Byrne is the perfect person to lead this important effort," announced
Dick Bertolet, Executive Vice President, First Financial Bank. "Bill has been
instrumental in the continued growth of First Financial Bank's Commercial
Banking and hired several of our current Business Relationship Managers. His
team's work has resulted in the Bank being one of the area's most important
Commercial service providers. Bill's team provides the kind of resource
businesses need: knowledge of the area, extensive business experience and a
strong service focus."
