It is hard to believe that another year has come and gone! You always hear that as you get older, time seems to go by faster. I hate to admit it, but I think it’s true. With everything that has happened over the past three years, it’s just a blur. Bronco has diligently continued to try and meet the needs of our members. We feel confident that we have done that even after dealing with the ongoing effects of the pandemic.
We were allowed to return to some sort of normalcy in 2022. Thanks to the support of our members, Bronco had a solid year. This was evident through strong loan growth and returns on investment income. Unfortunately, we finally witnessed rising rates for the first time in quite a few years. Everyone predicted rates would rise eventually, and they finally did. Through it all, our entire staff has been dedicated to facing the challenges of the future and continuing to be the community partner we have been in the past.
As always, Bronco recognizes that our sole purpose is to serve you, our members. We continue to remain a safe and secure financial institution that maintains a “Well Capitalized” rating by our regulator. We hope the assistance we provide, and our competitive financial products and services, are why we have such loyal members. We do not take that loyalty for granted. Thank you for your continued support and for allowing us to be your proud financial partner.
Thanks again! And as always, I wish a safe and prosperous New Year to everyone!
Brian Hedgepeth, CEO
