Sandy Spring Bancorp, a bank holding company, is the parent of Sandy Spring Bank and three subsidiaries: Sandy Spring Insurance, Equipment Leasing and West Financial Services. The bank, which has 42 branches in suburban Maryland and Northern Virginia, spent much of 2007 digesting a pair of recent bank acquisitions. By year-end, the uncertain economy forced the company to impose a hiring freeze, cut discretionary expenses and reduce employee benefits.
