“Our banking relationship dates back to our grandfather more than
ve decades ago. As our family has grown and our banking needs
have changed, Bank of the West continues to provide the right
nancial products for us, both for our business and our personal
banking needs. More than transactional banking services, we’ve
built a trusting relationship with Bank of the West.”

“True relationship banking
epitomizes genuine customer
care, offered in collaboration
with our great banking partners.
It is fostered by well prepared
and consistent customer contact
and ensures our customer’s
financial needs are continually
being cared for.”
-Emily Baumgartner
Branch Manager, CO
We can help a young family purchase
their first home or save for their child’s
college education.
Our insurance products can provide
peace of mind during life’s unforeseen
moments.
Our mix of retirement products can
help ensure that you have sufficient
income during your retirement years.
This full service offering of banking
products and services has attracted
generations of loyal customers.
We have met the banking needs of
four generations of the Elkin family of
Novato, California. The relationship
began with the late Lauren Elkin, Sr.
and continued for nearly 40 years with
his son, Lauren Jr. and wife Jean,
before their passing.
Today, we provide both personal and
business banking products to their
adult children Linda Elkin, her brother,
Lauren lll, his wife Claudia and their
sons, Lauren lV and Michael.
Many consumer banking relationships
expand to include banking the family
business as well. One such example
is our relationship with Paul Taylor, a
consumer banking customer in
Brentwood, California, who chose Bank
of the West for his business banking
needs when he opened a small cabinet
making business in 1997.
Today, with a 50% annual growth rate,
Precision Cabinets is the largest
employer in Brentwood, at one time
having up to 300 workers. We provide
Precision Cabinets with a line of credit,
cash management products, sweep
and payroll accounts, wire transfers and
more. And of course, we continue to
handle Paul’s personal banking needs
as well.
