Kenneth Martinek, chairman, president and CEO of Northeast Community Bank, said: We are excited about the addition of the team from Hayden Financial to the bank – their credentials are impeccable. This acquisition gives us the ability to offer investment advisory and financial planning as part of the services we provide our customers at a time when the public is seeking more help with their finances from professionals.
Vern Hayden, CFP, president of Hayden Financial Group, added: This is a perfect fit for us since the bank is community focused and we look forward to being integrated with the bank, while remaining autonomous. I plan on remaining with my firm indefinitely and have no plans to retire. We see this as a partnership with great opportunity for growth. This is truly a high quality bank with financial stability and a top notch operation.
