New Year, A New Bank?

A New Year, A New Bank?

If ringing in 2024 has you thinking this is your year to have a better banking experience, we got you! Community banks, like F & M Community Bank, are passionate about consumers understanding that switching banks doesn’t have to be complicated. Moreover, did you know that the bank you choose could affect several factors that are important to a consumer’s financial journey, including securing a loan, obtaining favorable fees or rates, or ensuring the high-quality, personal service they expect from their financial partner.

As a local lender rooted in the community, F & M Community Bank prides itself on dealing openly and honestly with customers as reliable stewards of our depositors’ money to help them achieve their financial goals and support the community in times of need.

Here are a few reasons why consumers should consider switching to bank with a community bank:

• America’s Most Trusted Lenders: Community banks have an 80% satisfaction score compared to 77% of national banks, and 75% of credit unions, according to the 2022 American Consumer Satisfaction Index.
• Partners in Small Business: Community banks make 60% of the nation’s small business loans and 80% of agricultural loans.
• Have a strong track record in helping underserved Americans by focusing a relatively large share of their resources in low- and moderate-income tracts.
• Community Engagement: Community bankers are deeply involved in their local communities, volunteering their time, and making donations to worthwhile causes.
