In the April 2024 issue of TulsaPeople, Mabrey Bank was featured as a local “Legacy Business.” The following article is what appeared in the magazine. Click here to explore TulsaPeople’s full Legacy Business highlight.
In 1906, G.W. Mabrey joined the Board of Directors at Citizens National Bank in Okmulgee, Oklahoma. Five generations and 15 Mabrey Bank locations later, the Mabrey family’s legacy as stewards of a financial institution built on integrity, service and success is stronger than ever.
Led by brothers Scott Mabrey as the CEO and Carlisle Mabrey IV as the COO, Mabrey Bank is celebrating its 100th anniversary since the bank’s current charter was granted in 1924. Over that century, Mabrey Bank has expanded from Okmulgee to Tulsa, Oklahoma City and eight other markets across the state. The additions of services
like the Private Bank, Mabrey Mortgage and industry-specific lending products in healthcare, recreational land and much more have contributed to Mabrey Bank reaching $1.8 billion in asset size.
However, assets alone can’t tell the whole story of Mabrey Bank’s longevity. The bank’s success is rooted in treating its team members and customers like family, while caring for and respecting its communities. In 2023, Mabrey Bank donated more than $545,000 to community initiatives across 220 organizations in addition to hundreds of volunteer hours served by the team members.
An updated mission statement, launched this year in the wake of the centennial milestone, reinforces the family’s brand of customer-focused banking that has set Mabrey Bank apart over the last century.
Our team provides sound financial solutions and personalized service to empower people, enrich businesses and improve the communities we serve.
This mission, cultivated through generations of Mabrey family leadership and now upheld by more than 270 team members, showcases why Mabrey Bank has developed into a family-owned, locally operated pillar of the Oklahoma business community.
