FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich. (July 8, 2011) – Farmington Hills, Mich.-based
Level One Bank announced it will be making available more than $100 million in loans to qualifying small businesses in Michigan. The announcement was made by Patrick J. Fehring, Level One Bank President & CEO.
Level One Bank was selected as the only community bank in Michigan and one of six community banks nationwide to be in the first wave of participants awarded funds through the U.S. Department of the Treasury Small Business Lending Fund (SBLF).

“Small businesses are the true drivers of our economy,” said Fehring. “We look forward to enhancing our efforts as we continue our focus on helping small businesses grow, flourish and create new jobs in our state.”
