Business:
As a full-service community bank, Meridian offers products to meet our retail and commercial customer’s needs through three principal business line unit distribution channels. Their primary focus is to serve small and middle-market businesses and their executives, entrepreneurs, real estate investors, professionals and high net worth individuals with a variety of financial services and solutions, while maintaining a disciplined approach to risk management. They have invested heavily in commercial lenders and operations personnel to take advantage of what they believe would be significant account turnover among banks due to local merger activity.
