On December 27, 1997, Eastern Virginia Bankshares was founded on the principle that local communities are best served by local banks. This founding principle has allowed us to prosper as a local institution. We welcome you to Eastern Virginia Bankshares, and to our philosophy of local banks serving local communities.
At Eastern Virginia Bankshares, we seek to preserve one of America's great traditions, the local bank. At the same time, by combining capital and technological resources into one company, we can keep pace with the modern financial age and offer our customers competitive products and services, along with the personal touch. This is our philosophy, and it translates into contented customers and increasing returns to shareholders.
