For generations, Tompkins has helped the communities we serve thrive and grow. As a community-based financial institution, we consider it our duty to provide innovative financial solutions for local families and businesses as they navigate their financial journeys. Whether you’re a first-time homebuyer hoping to put down roots, or an entrepreneur looking to grow your business, Tompkins is here for you every step of the way. Looking back, we’ve served our communities since 1836, and we’ve evolved over time to better serve those who need us most. Our longevity gives us our strength, but adapting to the everchanging landscape allows us to continue to innovate and grow for the betterment of our customers, our company, and our community. When four community banks across New York State and Pennsylvania came together to form the Tompkins family of banks, we realized we were on to something special. For many years, Tompkins Trust Company, Tompkins Bank of Castile, Tompkins Mahopac Bank, and Tompkins VIST Bank operated independently as separately chartered financial institutions, while benefitting from the strength of a shared vision and mission. Now, we’ve come together as one, and we have our customers and communities to thank for helping us reach this next step in our journey. From our rich history comes an innovative vision – a community bank with local ties and leadership, but with broad financial capabilities and strength. Our team members understand the significance of local decision-making, leadership, and philanthropy but have the tools and resources necessary to provide innovative products and services to local families and businesses. It’s the best of both worlds.

Chemung Canal Trust Company is an independent community bank, which has served the financial needs of businesses and individuals for over 180 years. We trace our roots to the opening of our namesake, the Chemung Canal, in 1833. Today, we operate 33 branch offices in 12 New York State counties and one Pennsylvania county. Most important, we remain steadfast to our community banking philosophy and business model, which means we build long-term relationships with our clients and play a vital role in the communities we serve. Deposits gathered locally are channeled back into our local communities in the form of loans to businesses, individuals, organizations and other enterprises. Decisions are made locally, not in some far-off distant city.

A simple philosophy can lead a company to great rewards. Treat your customers, your employees, and your communities with respect and you will earn their loyalty. Our strategy has never been about selling products, but instead about finding ways to make life more rewarding for our customers and employees. We know that our employees are our strongest asset! We have a knack for hiring the finest and brightest and understand how fostering their growth impacts customer service. So, we accommodate families, invest in their futures, and recognize hard work. Many years of experience have enabled us to overcome obstacles that stand in the way of customer satisfaction. We are proud that customer surveys consistently show 99% of our customers would recommend us to their family and friends. And for two years in a row, we were voted the number one Bank in Pennsylvania for satisfaction and trust by our customers. The foundation of our financial strength lies in our ability to recognize and proactively meet the needs of our customers. For this reason, we stand out when compared to other financial service providers in our market. At FCCB we offer a winning combination — the one-on-one service of a community bank paired with a broad line of products and services typically offered by larger financial organizations.

CFCU Community Credit Union is a non-profit financial institution serving residents in Tompkins, Cortland, Seneca and Cayuga counties. We hire local employees, have local board members, make decisions locally, and support local charities. Our mission is to provide the highest level of personal financial services in a friendly, professional manner; to encourage thrift, savings and the wise use of credit; to increase the knowledge and ability of our members to manage and control their financial well-being; to provide sound financial management in order to maintain earnings for our continued growth and to provide our employees with a challenging and rewarding career.

We are a not-for-profit organization working daily to express the idea of people working together to achieve a better life for themselves and their communities. It’s a “people helping people” mindset that instills in our operations a higher level of service and value than you’ll typically find at most for-profit financial institutions. In addition, not-for-profit means we return operating income back to our members in the form of attractive interest rates and lower fees. We’ve always been in business to look out for our members’ interests, whether it’s offering low-cost financing for a financial emergency or simply a better deal on a savings or checking account. Our Credit Union was originally chartered in 1954 as Ingersoll-Rand Employees Federal Credit Union. Twenty years later (1974), with permission to expand our charter, we became IR-Erwin Federal Credit Union. Back then, we could serve anyone who lived or worked in the Town of Erwin or Ingersoll-Rand employees and their families. Ten years later, we became a multi-occupational credit union serving a wider variety of members under the name First Heritage Federal Credit Union. In 2001 we became a community chartered credit union. Today we serve over 30,000 members from branches in Addison, Corning, Elmira, Elmira Heights, Horseheads, Mansfield, Painted Post and Wellsboro. Our community charter means we can serve anyone who lives, works, worships, attends school or maintains a business in Chemung or Steuben Counties, NY or Tioga County, PA.

Tioga State Bank is a family owned independent community bank that serves Tioga, Broome, Tompkins and Chemung Counties.

ServU Federal Credit Union is a full service financial alternative to a bank. As a member owned financial cooperative, credit unions are not-for-profit. They function to serve their membership. As a result, credit unions are able to pay back higher dividends on savings and charge lower interest on loans. Money that is made by the credit union after overhead is returned to the members as dividends and other financial services. The Credit Union is overseen by a volunteer Board of Directors. These Board members are elected each year by the credit union membership. Today over 35,000 people in Steuben, Schuyler, Yates and Allegany counties enjoy the benefits of ServU Credit Union membership.
