Bank of Eastern Oregon among ICBA's top ag lenders of 2024

Heppner, OR - Bank of Eastern Oregon (BEO) has been named one of the country's top agricultural lenders in 2024 by the Independent Community Bankers Association (ICBA). BEO ranks 18th on the list of community banks with $300 million to $1 billion in assets and is the only Pacific Northwest Bank based agricultural lender on this list. The article in Independent Banker magazine includes photos of BEO personnel visiting Painted Hills Natural Beef in Fossil, Oregon; a customer who has been with BEO for over 15 years. "Community institutions like the Bank of Eastern Oregon are in the agricultural space for the long haul," said Jeff Bailey, President and Chief Executive Officer of BEO. "Agricultural lending isn't just a sideline opportunity that we're going to get in and out of. In fact, the community bank takes its responsibility to support rural communities-of which agriculture is a large part very seriously. It's not just a line of business; it is our business," Bailey added.
