Cleve Langlois, a long-time Baton Rouge real estate lender, has been named the local market president for First Bank and Trust. Langlois was formerly with Hancock Bank and Whitney Bank. New Orleans-based First Bank and Trust was established in 1991 and has over $1 billion in assets. Langlois took the job last week. The new branch at the corner of Jefferson Highway and Brentwood Drive across from the Baton Rouge Country Club opened Monday. Additional branches are proposed throughout the Baton Rouge area as First Bank intends to expand their presence in the Baton Rouge market.
