- You’re Investing in the Growth of a Local Community Bank
By living in the community in which they invest, shareholders have a stake in their local community
and the strength of its economy. Your investment has a direct impact on the volume of business loans
People’s Bank is legally allowed to originate, which in turn affects the amount of financial resources it
can direct into the local economy.
- Board Directors and Management Live in the Communities We Serve
Most large banking chains operate outside of Oregon, which include the bank’s executive management
and board of directors, who set policy and make credit decisions. Almost all of People’s Bank’s
administrators
and board directors live in the Rogue and Willamette Valley and understand its economy and the people who live
here. Bank policies and loan decisions are made with a local perspective and in a responsive, educated
approach.
- Solid Financial Footing and Capital Has Allowed for Growth and Future Opportunities
People’s Bank recently opened its tenth branch in Jacksonville, Oregon. Increased
shareholder investment and financial earnings has allowed us to increase our branch footprint and
positions the bank for future branching opportunities and earnings.
- The Bank and Its Staff Are Involved in the Community
People’s Bank strongly believes it is important to support our local community, which supports us. We
do this through a combination of human resources and financial support. We consciously staff our
organization with people who actively give back to the community. The organizations we support are
largely guided by the ones our employees are involved with, those we collectively have a soft spot for,
and organizations that have the greatest impact across the community.
