Northern Indiana Regional President and Chief Retail Banking
Officer for F&M Bank, Andy Baker, said, “We have been eager to

Wayne and Indiana regional headquarters. We have built a solid,
community-focused team here in Northern Indiana and we are thrilled
to further expand our local decision-making, customized financial
products, and commitment to exceptional customer service in Fort
Wayne.”
F&M’s Downtown Fort Wayne office is conveniently located in
the heart of the city. “We chose a central location to be a part of
the outstanding growth happening in downtown Fort Wayne. We are
excited to become a new downtown neighbor to so many new and
growing businesses,” continued Baker.
The new office and regional facility feature over 5,000 square
feet with several offices, a drive-up ATM and bankers on-site to
accommodate F&M’s ongoing growth and commitment to the

As a full-service office, F&M Bank will offer Downtown Fort

with five retail employees, seven commercial baking employees and a
mortgage loan officer several days a week, all of whom are eager to
