ALLENTOWN, PA, and MARYSVILLE, PA--(Marketwired - Jun 9, 2014) -   Ambassador Financial Group, Inc. is pleased to announce that Riverview Financial Corporation (OTCQB: RIVE) has retained Ambassador to provide investor relations and financial communications services.

Riverview, headquartered in Marysville, Pennsylvania, is the recently formed parent company of Riverview Bank and its operating divisions, Halifax Bank, Marysville Bank and Riverview Financial Wealth Management. Riverview Financial's total assets and branch network grew significantly following the merger of Union Bank and Trust Co. and Riverview Bank, which closed in fourth quarter 2013.
