Vermont's banking industry in Livin' magazine
The September/October issue of Livin' the Vermont Way magazine features a story titled "Hunkering Down: Vermont's banks weather the economic storm."
The 3-page article by Cindy Ellen Hill of Middlebury quotes Tom Candon, Deputy Commissioner of the Vermont Department of Banking, Insurance, Securities and Health Care and a Commissioner of VHFA: "The national economy does impact on us here ... but we're apparently better off than most are."
The article points out Vermont has one of the lowest rates of foreclosures and bankruptcies in the U.S.

Adam and Eve on a raft
VHFA's Executive Management team channeled the staff of Mel's Diner this morning when it prepared and served breakfast to staff.
The event was a "thank you" to staff for a job well-done over the last several months.
