Local bank branch hires new V.P.

South County Bank has hired Matt Greville to serve as vice president

and manager of the Laguna Beach branch. Greville had been a branch

manager at Wells Fargo Bank’s Laguna Beach branch for four years.

“South County Bank has a reputation for excellence in servicing

its clients’ financial needs,” said Greville. “I’m excited about the

opportunity to be part of a team that has demonstrated a strong

commitment to our city and to our customers throughout good times and

bad.”

Just hours after the June 1 landslide, South County Bank

contributed $5,000 to the Laguna Beach landslide victims relief fund

and created a special low-interest emergency loan for those affected

by the tragedy.

South County Bank is located at 540 S. Coast Highway. For more
