Columbia Bank has recently announced three new additions to its commercial banking team in Yakima Washington. Matt Duffy, Brian V. Johnston and Jake Hardy. These new members will use their many years of collective experience to usher the company into unparalleled heights.

This group, lead by Matt Duffy will join Chris Ross and Jill Christianson at the bank’s Yakima branch. SVP Todd Leber has said that the addition of this new group will augment their already impressive presence in the eastern Washington markets. They are also heavily involved in local community events. They have participated in programs such as United Way, Boy Scouts, Leadership Yakima, the YMCA and an assortment of other organizations.

Key staff members have exclaimed that the move to Columbia bank will add efficiency in meeting the needs of the agricultural community. Columbia’s fourth quarter earnings last year were an astounding liquidity ration of 49%, which means that over 2 billion dollars in funds were available for its customers.
