Howard Bank Opens Towson Branch

Howard Bank held the grand opening of its first branch in the Baltimore market on Nov. 20. Political and business leaders gathered at the new branch located on Pennsylvania Ave. in the heart of downtown Towson.  A regional office adjacent to the branch houses a senior executive and a team of business bankers, according to President & CEO Mary Ann Scully.

Scully announced in January that Howard Bank’s growth strategy involved investing in facilities to serve the bank’s growing customer base in Baltimore County and Baltimore City. The 18 month old focus on greater Baltimore reflects part of the company’s goal to grow in size and scale to better serve the regional community. 

Mary Ann Scully noted, “The ability to have hands on presence in one of our most attractive growth markets fulfills our strategy to show a real commitment to this county. We have enjoyed developing a growing number of relationships with Baltimore companies and residents and look forward to working more closely with the community in many ways. This has been a year of incredible opportunity for Howard Bank, and we are always grateful to our team and our customers for making these expansions successful.”
