Exchange Bank - Santa Rosa (Saint Francis)

One of the most unique banks in the United States

The last will and testament of Exchange Bank's co-founder and second president, Frank Doyle, stands tall above his many accomplishments. Doyle wanted the Bank to be a locally owned and managed institution. So rather than giving his stock to his heirs, his controlling interest --(50.39% of the common stock) was put into a perpetual trust. The dividends are specified for distribution by the Trustees to the Frank P. Doyle and Polly O'Meara Doyle Scholarship Fund for assistance to worthy young men and women attending Santa Rosa Junior College.

The Doyle Trust has proven to be one of the most remarkable planned gifts in the history of American community college education. More than $76 million to over 115,000 students since 1948. A Commitment to Excellence

Throughout the years we have won awards and accolades in Sonoma County by being voted the Best Local Bank, Best Business Bank, One of the Best Places to Work, Best Company to Do Business With, and Business Environmental Alliance Best Practices Award. We believe our core values make these honors possible.

Stability, longevity, service

Since its founding in 1890, Exchange Bank has had only seven presidents. Father and son Manville Doyle and Frank Doyle co-founded the bank. Frank Doyle served as President until 1948. Our third and fourth presidents, Charles Reinking and Andrew Shepard presided over a time of expansion and banking innovation. In 1986 C. William Reinking became Exchange Bank's fifth president, and J. Barrie Graham became president in 2003. On August 18, 2008, C. William Reinking became CEO and Chairman of the Board, and Bill Schrader, President.
