Dundalk bank steps up to help customers in wake of bridge collapse

The only bank based in Dundalk has launched two programs to help businesses and individuals affected by the tragedy that happened in its backyard. Tim Prindle, the CEO of Bay Vanguard Bank (Nasdaq: BVFL), said the bank will start offering no-interest lines of credit and will allow eligible loan recipients to skip some interest payments. He hopes the programs could help some customers, including longshoremen, and others who were affectedby the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge. The local bank joins federal and state agencies that are offering programs to help businesses impacted by the bridge collapse.
