Core Values
In executing our Mission, we subscribe to the following core values:
We subscribe to a team environment that is progressive, challenging, fast-paced ... and fun! We describe this as our "FISH!" philosophy, patterned after the book by the same title and the success of the Pike Place Fish Market in Seattle. Employees win fish for: "making a customer's day", "being there", "choosing the right attitude", and being able to find ways to "play" (professionally) at work.
We intend to remain an independent organization, locally owned and managed.
We uphold the highest ethical standards with all constituents: our customers, team members, shareholders and communities.
We take pride in being cautiously opportunistic,
within the confines of prudent risk management.
A commitment to above average rates of return on
assets and equity will achieve maximum value for our shareholders.
Our Quest: To be the best performing small bank in America measured by Keefe, Bruyette and Woods' Index of Banks operating as a thrift at our size (800+ million in assets) or smaller, measured by ROE (Return on Equity). |

History:
Pulaski Bank was founded in 1922 by a group of Polish-American citizens who joined together to establish a Savings and Loan Association in St. Louis. The purpose of this Association was to form a financial organization to allow its members to achieve financial freedom and homeownership. The name was chosen in honor of General Casimir Pulaski, an Old World nobleman and hero of the American Revolution.
Pulaski was born in 1748, the oldest of three sons of Count Josef Pulaski. In 1775, he met an American emissary, Benjamin Franklin, and learned of the American colonists struggle for independence. He proceeded to America, joined Washington's Army and was granted a commission as Brigadier General of Cavalry, the first of such rank in the Continental Army. After a brave defense of Charleston, South Carolina, General Pulaski died with his cavalry in battle at Savannah, Georgia in 1779.
The goal in 1922, which remains true today, is to provide both safety and security for customers savings and channel available funds to borrowers for the purchase of homes. We provide the best possible service to every customer. According to Bill Donius, "We never tried to be the biggest organization, but we always try to be the best we can be." |
