Tompkins Community Bank to Rebrand as Tompkins

Tompkins Financial Corporation announced earlier this month that it has requested regulatory approval to rebrand Tompkins Community Bank as Tompkins Bank & Trust, a name that reflects the organization’s longstanding reputation as a trusted financial partner, its capabilities, and its continued commitment to relationship-based banking and personalized service.


With more than 50 banking offices serving customers across Western, Central and Hudson Valley New York, as well as Southeastern Pennsylvania, Tompkins’ new name builds on the organization’s nearly 190-year legacy while positioning it for the future.

“The new name better reflects who we are today and the strength of the relationships we have built over generations,” said Stephen Romaine, president and CEO of Tompkins Financial Corporation. “While our name is evolving, our purpose remains the same: to serve as a trusted financial partner and to help our customers, businesses and communities thrive. We are proud of our history, excited about this next chapter, and deeply committed to continuing to meet the needs of the communities we serve.”

The transition to Tompkins Bank & Trust will not change the products, services or local teams customers know and trust. Customers will continue to receive the same personalized service and local decision-making that have long defined the Tompkins experience.


Subject to regulatory approval, customers will begin to see the Tompkins Bank & Trust name and brand introduced across the organization’s footprint over the coming year. This transition represents an exciting step forward—one that reinforces the bank’s capabilities today while honoring the values that have guided it for nearly two centuries.


As Tompkins Bank & Trust, the organization will continue investing in local communities, supporting regional economies, and providing trusted financial solutions tailored to the needs of individuals, families, and businesses throughout its markets.
