Well, it is hard to believe that yet another year has rolled by. The Galston Community Bank remains the benchmark for Community Banks in NSW.
We have become stronger in both banking services and the support of our Community. To date we have given over $3.5 million back to our Community in diverse and beneficial ways.
It is a big thanks to our staff and board, there have been challenging times during the year but with great team work we have managed a good profit.
This year we will be giving a dividend of $0.17 cents per share, fully franked.
Our bank continues to operate profitably as a result of the tremendous support by our community. Remember, the more support with banking business which comes our way, the more we can support our community.
Keep the requests for donations and sponsorships coming in, because that is a main reason we are here, we also offer personalised banking business with a very friendly staff.
A big thanks to our staff, board, shareholders and community for our success. Ralph Steele, Chairman Galston Financial Services.
