Red River Bank’s Banking Centers Open in Areas Impacted by Hurricane Ida
September 03 2021 - 12:00PM
All Red River Bank banking centers impacted by Hurricane Ida have
resumed full operations as of today, Friday, September 3, 2021,
five days after the storm made landfall. The company’s banking
centers in affected areas began opening as early as Tuesday, August
31 – ensuring service to all Red River Bank’s markets – and
gradually came online throughout the week, as electricity and
internet access were restored to greater Baton Rouge and Covington,
Louisiana.
Red River Bank leaders began undertaking business-continuity
efforts the week of August 23 in preparation for Hurricane Ida,
which made landfall as a Category 4 storm in southeast Louisiana on
Sunday, August 29. Despite the resulting temporary banking center
closures, none sustained damage, and mobile and online banking
options were available, uninterrupted, to hurricane-impacted
customers with access to power and internet. Additionally, the bank
continually communicated operational updates to employees,
customers, and the public via its website and social media
platforms, among other methods.
“Thankfully, our southeast Louisiana team members are all safe
and sustained no major damage to their property following Hurricane
Ida,” stated Red River Bank President and CEO Blake Chatelain. “As
Louisianans, we are resilient people who have learned how to
prepare for hurricanes and other weather typical for our state. We
appreciate the efforts our employees made to ensure we weathered
this storm as well as possible, and we want our customers and
communities to know that we are here for them as they recover and
rebuild.”
