Central Fidelity Banks Inc., based in Richmond, said loan chargeoffs rose to $10 million in the second quarter from $3 million a year earlier because of "an accelerating trend of consumer bankruptcies in both the credit card and installment loan portfolios." Commercial and construction loan recoveries also compared unfavorably with the prior year.
