FROMNICKMAFFEO - PRESIDENT & CEO
Catching up, and moving forward ... JULY 2020
As the world begins to re-open, I would like to take this opportunity to commend all of the customers and employees of Canton Co-operative for your flexibility, resilience and optimism in these truly extraordinary times. You made a difference.
From Day 1 dealing with the Coronavirus, the Bank’s goal first and foremost has been to do everything we could to keep customers and employees safe.
After that, we wanted to keep things as normal as possible – on the theory that would help everyone cope.
Customers were able to do their banking as always thanks either to “old technology” like ATMs and our drive-up window or via “new technology” like Online Banking, Mobile Banking and Bill Pay. (Some ended up really liking the new ways, which was very good to hear. They’re all available through our just-updated web site at cantoncoopbank.com.)
Dozens and dozens of local businesses were able to get Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans through Canton Co-operative. Though we had never written SBA loans before, we ramped up immediately and did not turn away a single applicant. The borrowers were very appreciative. We were honored to be able to help.
Things seem to be moving in a positive direction but there are still a lot of unknowns. If you find yourself struggling financially, please call or email VP/Senior Loan Officer Anabela Vargas at 781-828-8811 x37 or me at x19. We can explore all your options together and hopefully set your mind at ease.
When it comes to lending, it's business as usual at Canton Co-operative --- and that was true even when it wasn't
If the past few months have you thinking about getting a home equity line to make some changes to your home -or- if your financial situation has changed and you might benefit from a debt consolidation or a refinance, let’s talk.
Canton Co-operative Bank's lending team was making loans throughout the shutdown. And now that our lobby has reopened, you can come in to apply or we are happy to do everything distanced, if that’s better for you. Call 781-828-8811 x4 or email VP/Senior Loan Officer Anabela Vargas. You can also apply for a Loan 24/7 on our web site.
