About Us
Dime, over its soon to be 140-year-history, has had to manage through many financial, national and world crises. We’ve survived through two World Wars, the Great Depression, numerous recessions and banking failures in the1980s and 1990s. We’ve been able to do that because of our prudent and careful management, which has generated record earnings for us over the past twenty years. Those accumulated earnings have been the source of our capital strength which allowed us to absorb this year’s losses yet still left Dime a very strongly capitalized institution.
Moreover, as important as earnings are to Dime, they do not tell the whole story for the year. We are pleased to report that deposits grew at a very healthy 7.76% in 2008, increasing by over $32 million. Much of that growth took place in our checking accounts and certificates of deposits as consumers and businesses sought to return to a local bank that they knew was a safe haven away from the creations of Wall Street.
