Yadkin Valley Financial Corporation (NASDAQ: YAVY) announced that its Board voted to suspend payment of the Company's quarterly cash dividend. The Board will continue to evaluate the payment of a quarterly cash dividend on a quarterly basis.

"The suspension of our quarterly dividend, while disappointing, is a necessary step in preserving our capital during this prolonged period of economic uncertainty across our markets.
