Wyomissing, Pa. (April 27, 2020) – Customers Bank is proud to announce the Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency (PHFA) ranked the bank a top-10 lender for the third year in a row. PHFA named Elsie Maduro, Vice President and CRA Mortgage Officer at Customers Bank, as the Top Individual Mortgage Originator for the third consecutive year.
