There has been lots of changes in the banking industry in the last year, especially in Paulding with the change of First Federal Bank to Premier Bank.
More changes are coming to Paulding with more, and better, support for local citizens to take their banking to the next level.
The Union Bank Company will open a new office in the Paulding County Economic Development Innovation Center. This is hoped to only be temporary while the new facility is being constructed.
The Innovation Center was setup by the Paulding County Commissioners to foster development of new business in Paulding. The Union Bank realized the potential of this new location, and expert banker, Abby Hornish, who will now be the Branch Manager, has been in Paulding with many years of banking experience. Her crew includes Wendy Groves, Leslie Townley, and Stacey Rinebolt with over 40 years of combined experience, to serve the community.
“Small Community Banking”, said Bart Mills, Marketing Officer, “is the motto that The Union Bank Company brings to Paulding.” They specialize in a commitment to you with experience that you may be missing now.
The headquarters for the Union Bank is located in Putnam County which is also a farming community similar to Paulding. They understand the needs of farming and rural communities, sets up everyone to have their banking needs met. Whether it is loans for small business, investment and wealth management, mortgages, auto and personal loans and much more, Union Bank has it all!
This is the 18th branch in nine counties and the first in Paulding County. Union Bank was originally opened in 1904 as The People’s Bank in Kalida. Two banks merged in the depression era and became the Union Bank. During the 1990’s the bank kicked off the growth cycle, starting with the Ottawa branch, that is continuing today with the new location in Paulding.
The opening of the new branch, including teller services, opened on October 16 with FDIC approval granted. The Union Bank Company is investing in the community and ready to serve you!
