• You’re Investing in the Growth of Local Commerce and the Strength of the Rogue Valley’s Economy

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 Rogue Valley

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 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 six branch and new administrative headquarters. 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.
