Oxford Bank

About Us

We are very proud of our history because there are very few businesses that have been around since June 17, 1884 (136 years). To quote Henry Ford, ''History is bunk!'' It's ''Bunk'' because while we are proud of our heritage, looking backwards won't help Oxford Bank be the company that we want to be for our customers, employees and stakeholders today. We can only do that by having something important to offer to our community.

Just using the word ''community'' highlights how much things have changed over our history. In the 1800's, the Oxford Bank community was the people who lived and worked within an easy horse ride from our branches. Today, the Oxford Bank community is people who share our values and desire for the relationship we offer, so it isn't dependent just on where they live or work.

We believe that well-run organizations, on a fairly regular basis, should ask themselves why they exist. Our answer is we exist, and succeed, because we offer our physical and digital neighbors a valuable relationship. We believe value is created for our customers by having true, in-person service focused on solutions that make life easier for them.
