About Saco & Biddeford Savings Institution:
One of the underlying principles of a mutual savings bank is the improvement not only of the bank’s financial condition, and its commitment to offer its customers the best rates and lowest fees possible, but to support the communities and the people that it serves. For over 182 years, Maine’s oldest bank has maintained and incredible record of support to the communities in its service area and beyond. Saco & Biddeford Savings actively assists many local clubs, groups, and non-profit organizations through whose efforts help make our communities a better place in which to live and work. The bank’s Community Investment Program and its Charitable Foundation, founded in 1998, embody that philosophy today. Founded in 1827, Saco & Biddeford Savings currently has branches in Biddeford, Old Orchard Beach, Scarborough, South Portland, Westbrook, and its headquarters in downtown Saco.
