Relationships Matter

BANK JONAH BANK…

Relationships Matter!

Jonah Bank of Wyoming and Independent Community Bankers of America (ICBA) are reminding consumers that banking locally is an investment in the community and creates a lifelong relationship with a hometown lender with community ties and a vested interest in their customers’ financial success.

We know you have a choice in financial providers, and we take extraordinary pride in our reputation as relationship lenders. We thank our customers for entrusting us with their financial futures and pledge to continue working every day to demonstrate our value while giving back to the community that we love and call home.

Community banks such as Jonah Bank are financial stewards of their communities, funding more than 60% of small businesses, more than 80% agricultural loans, and helping local families finance major purchases and build financial security. Community banks:

• Respect and honor community ties by channeling loans to neighborhoods where their depositors live and work, which helps drive the local economy.
• Are relationship lenders, taking a comprehensive approach to lending to consider numerous data sources, including credit history and discretionary spending.
• Understand and embrace local businesses. The Federal Reserve has repeatedly found that small businesses that apply for loans with community banks are more successful and satisfied.
• Are innovative, partnering with technology providers (as showcased through ICBA’s Innovation initiatives) to deliver high-tech, high-touch experiences.
• Give back. Serving local communities is a part of the community bank tradition, as reflected in ICBA’s National Community Bank Service Awards.

“Community banks have built their reputation as relationship lenders, attuned to the unique financial needs of their customers and serving them through every phase of their financial journey," ICBA President and CEO Rebeca Romero Rainey said. “ICBA is honored to represent the nation’s community bankers that make a difference in the financial lives of their customers and power local communities.”
