The Board of Directors understands that ESSA Bank’s (ESSA’s) reputation for integrity and trust is determined by the conduct of its insiders. In order to protect that reputation, the Board has adopted this policy to ensure ESSA remains a trusted and viable entity in this community.
To provide the insiders of this Bank with the standards as to what is and what is not acceptable behavior with regards to conflict of interest. Additionally, the policy will establish a “Code of Ethics” for all insiders.
Set policy as to what constitutes a conflict of interest. Establish authority as to approval of exceptions to policy.
Establish the authority for the President to require all insiders to submit a statement attesting to their compliance with this policy each calendar year.
Establish the basic “Code of Ethics” to be employed by all insiders during the period for which he or she works for or represents the Bank.
Insiders must not advance their own personal or business interest, or those of others with whom they have a personal or business relationship, at the expense of the Bank. Insiders must, if they have an interest in a matter or transaction before the Board of Directors:
1. Disclose to the Board all material non-privileged information relevant to the Board’s decision on the matter or transaction, including
1. The existence, nature and extent of the insiders’ interest;
2. The facts known to the insider as to the matter or transaction under consideration.
2. Refrain from participating in the Board’s discussion of the matter or transaction, and,
3. Recuse themselves from voting on the matter or transaction (if the insider is a director).
Each executive officer or director and each of his or her related interest (as defined in Regulation O) is deemed to be an insider for the purpose of this policy.
Executive officers include division heads, COO & President/CEO.
A related interest is a company controlled by a person or a political campaign committee controlled by or benefiting a person. A person is generally deemed to be in control if he or she owns 25% of the controlled entity, or owns 10% and is an executive officer or director of the controlled entity.
This includes not only making loans, but also approving overdrafts, accepting checks on uncollected funds, waiving non-sufficient funds (NSF), overdraft, or late
charges, and waiving the requirement for financial statements or collateral documents.
The internal auditor is given the authority to audit all of the elements under this policy as to compliance thereof.
All transactions with insiders will be made on substantially the same terms as those afforded other ESSA customers to avoid the appearance of preferential treatment. Special attention will be paid by the Board to any potentially excessive salaries or bonuses, director’s fees, fees paid where there is no apparent benefit to the Bank, and fees paid for services not yet received.
No extension of credit shall be granted to any insider of the Bank on more favorable terms, such as a lower interest rate charged, and/or extended maturity than is available to the general public, or in the alternative, is widely available to all ESSA employees.
No deposits shall be accepted from any insider of the Bank on more favorable terms than to any other ESSA customer, including higher interest rates, or longer or shorter maturities.
If any fees or terms are found by the Board to be excessive, the Board shall take prompt corrective action, including requiring restitution to the Bank, to remedy the situation.
The Bank will not purchase any goods or services from a company in which a director has a related interest.
Insiders should not represent the Bank in any transaction where he or she has a material connection or a financial interest.
(Examples of material connections include relatives or close personal friends – whether the transaction involves them as individuals or as principals in a firm doing business with the bank. An example of a financial interest is an insider’s involvement as a proprietor, partner, or joint venture in a firm doing business with the Bank.)
An insider should not accept a directorship of another corporation without the approval of ESSA’s Board of Directors. Charitable and nonprofit organizations are exceptions to this general requirement.
The President/CEO is prohibited from any affiliation with a political campaign committee.
Any insider making investments on behalf of the Bank is prohibited from taking advantage of the special circumstances associated with this duty. Specifically, an insider is prohibited from buying securities for his or her own account through dealers from which he or she buys securities for the Bank’s account. The insider is also prohibited from accepting gifts, entertainment, free travel, and so forth from a securities dealer or from employees who work for a securities firm (except as outlined below in section 4 of this policy). If the insider is ever approached with a deal that would benefit him or her personally, he or she must immediately report the circumstances to the President and the Chairman of the Board and stop placing investment orders through that firm.
In the course of performing bank duties, insiders acquire confidential information considered to be extremely sensitive by customers.
This information must not be revealed to unauthorized persons, nor should customers’ finances be discussed with others within the bank unless their duties require the information. Information about customers can be released only when authorized by the customer or subpoenaed by a court or the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), and then the information released must be accurate and within the confines of the authorizing document.
No insider of the Bank shall use any inside information to improperly profit for their own benefit. The Board shall make the final determination on any questionable insider information-related transactions made by an insider.
Any actual or potential conflict of interest regarding insiders shall be promptly disclosed to the Board for consideration, whether
intended or unintended.
Each insider will sign the “Statement on Conflict of Interest and Code of Ethics” form annually in the month of October.
Each investment officer will sign the “Investment Officer Code of Conduct Statement” form.
No insider of ESSA shall solicit anything of value from anyone in return for any business service or confidential information of the Bank. No insider of ESSA shall accept anything of value other than bona fide salary, wages, fees, or other compensation paid in the usual course of business from anyone in connection with the business of the Bank, either before or after a transaction is discussed or consummated.
Exceptions to this requirement include items offered based on a family or personal relationship, independent of any business of ESSA, the benefit is available to the general public under the same conditions, or the item would be paid for by the Bank as a reasonable business expense if it were not paid for by another party. Advertising materials, gifts relating to commonly recognized events, and certain awards also qualify as exceptions to this provision. Any ESSA insider who is offered or receives anything of value beyond what is authorized in this exception must disclose that fact to the Board.
Acceptance of Gifts: Bank officers may accept small gifts or other items of value from business associates of the bank, as long as all such acceptances are properly disclosed and the dollar value is considered nominal. Gifts valued up to $50 may be accepted without prior approval. Gifts exceeding $50 must receive the approval of the Board of Directors before acceptance. Insiders may accept the following types of items from individuals doing or seeking to do business with ESSA:
Meals, gratuities, amenities, or favors based on obvious family or personal relationships.
Meals, refreshments, travel arrangements, accommodations, or entertainment of reasonable value in the course of a meeting or other bona fide business occasion.
Loans from other financial institutions when made on customary terms for the purpose of financing proper and usual activities. It is the responsibility of the insider accepting the loan to ensure that the loan is not contingent upon ESSA accepting or offering any other service. The insider must also ensure that any loan from a correspondent of ESSA is made on an arm’s length basis and does not include any preferential terms.
Advertising or promotional material of reasonable value (pens, note pads, calendars, etc.).
Discounts or rebates on merchandise or services that are available to other similar customers.
Gifts of reasonable value related to commonly recognized events or occasions such as promotion, wedding, retirement, holiday, etc.
Civic, charitable, educational, or religious organizational awards for recognition of service and accomplishments.
Other benefits or items of value, when approved, in writing, on a case-by-case basis.
An insider may not make use of ESSA’s facilities for their own benefit, real or personal property, or personnel.
The Bank’s loans to any insider shall be made on terms no more favorable than those available at the same time to non-insiders for comparable transactions. They will carry no more than a normal risk of failure to repay, and have no unfavorable features.
If a loan to an insider exceeds the higher of $25,000 or 5% of the Bank’s unimpaired capital and surplus, the extension of credit must be approved in advance by a majority of the entire Board. The interested party will abstain from participating directly or indirectly in the voting. This abstention will be noted in the Board’s minutes. Prior approval of the Board must be obtained for any size loan if the aggregate amount of credit exceeds $500,000.
ESSA will make no loan to any insider or related interest that exceeds the regulatory aggregate lending limit of the Bank.
Any extension of credit by the Bank to an insider or related interest must be preceded by the submission of a detailed current financial statement to the Board. Any loan thus made to an executive officer shall be subject to the condition that the extension of credit shall become due and payable on demand at any time that the officer is indebted to an other bank(s) in an aggregate amount greater than the specified limit for the Bank.
Any overdraft being paid by ESSA on behalf of its executive officers and/or directors on an account at the Bank will be made in accordance with a written, pre-authorized interest-bearing extension of credit plan that specifies a method of repayment, or in accordance with a written, pre-authorized transfer of funds from another account of the account holder at the Bank. In the alternative, any such overdraft must be inadvertent, aggregating $1,000 or less, and remain outstanding for less than five days. The insider will be charged the same fee charged for any other customer of the Bank in similar circumstances.
Record keeping of insider transactions shall be as follows: records shall identify all executive officers, directors and their related interest, and the amount and terms of each extension of credit from ESSA to the person and their related interest. Records of publicly requested disclosures of information shall also be maintained. All records listed here shall be kept on file for a minimum of three years.
ESSA will establish a system to administer and monitor compliance with this policy. This system will ensure that all insiders are trained, kept aware of, and provided with interpretive advice and assistance in dealing with insider issues. The President/CEO is charged with the responsibility of soliciting the “Statement on Comprehensive Insider Code of Ethics and Conflict of Interest” on an annual basis from all insiders. This system will annually require the Compliance Officer to collect the “Statement on Comprehensive Insider Code of Ethics and Conflict of Interest” forms. These forms will be maintained at that office.
Failure to comply with this policy may result in the termination of employment. The action taken will be commensurate with the seriousness of the conduct and an evaluation of the situation. All violations of this policy will be brought to the attention of the board of directors. Termination of employment may be determined by an officer who is the direct or indirect supervisor of the employee concerned.

Founded in 1916, ESSA was established when Mr. John Gish founded the East Stroudsburg Building & Loan Bank in East Stroudsburg, PA. A number of strategic mergers during the early years resulted in a name change to East Stroudsburg Savings Association. As a result, by 1971, assets had grown to $20 million dollars.
As ESSA grew, so did our branch network. Between 1971 and 2004 ESSA added numerous branches throughout Monroe County. ESSA also was excited to form the ESSA Foundation, a 501(c)3 organization.
As a traditional thrift institution at that time, the bank added a spectrum of other banking and investment services. In 2006, ESSA underwent its third name change. The new name ESSA Bank & Trust more accurately reflected the banking institution they had become.
Since growth and serving more people remained at the center of ESSA’s goals, the leadership determined the best way to fuel that growth would be to convert from a mutual bank to a publicly owned entity. In 2006, ESSA Bancorp, Inc., the holding company for ESSA Bank & Trust, received regulatory approval to complete its conversion.
The bank’s assets reached $1 Billion in 2009. Rapid branch growth followed as multiple branches were added and the bank expanded in the Lehigh Valley market. The bank also added ESSA Advisory Services during that time. A strategic merger and acquisition allowed ESSA to expand its Lehigh Valley footprint by adding nine branches. After the acquisition assets reached $1.5 billion.
Between 2014 and 2015, ESSA made additional acquisitions which allowed the bank to grow into several new markets including Philadelphia and the Wilkes-Barre Scranton areas.
On July 23, 2025, ESSA Bank & Trust, whereby ESSA’s network of 20 branches and ATMs, merged with CNB Bank. Following this merger the bank now operates as ESSA Bank, a division of CNB Bank and brings the total asset size of CNB Bank to $8.0 billion.

ESSA Bank & Trust has a long history of charitable giving. In 1998, W. “Jack” Wallie, John E. Burrus, and Richard E. Talbot worked together to create the East Stroudsburg Savings Association Foundation. The Foundation was formed to solidify our belief “in returning to the community a portion of the profits to improve the quality of life.” This philanthropic initiative provided nearly $2 million to the Pocono region for the benefit of health-related programs, arts, education, parks and recreation, and housing.
Today, the ESSA Bank & Trust Foundation, established in 2007, continues the bank’s support of 501©3 organizations in our area and has awarded grants totaling more than $17.5 million to regional entities. As of 2024, the Foundation accepts requests from eligible organizations headquartered within Monroe County on a quarterly basis only, with award size limited to $10,000 per application. Our primary areas of interest remain community health, housing-related programs, education, arts, and parks and recreation.
If you are interested in obtaining information regarding our Foundation’s gifting guidelines and application process, please write to ESSA Bank & Trust Foundation, 200 Palmer Street, P.O.

Our goal, quite simply, is to minimize your exposure to risk and the impact of any fraud. To ensure we can continue to reach you whenever potential fraud is detected, please keep us informed of your correct phone number and address at all times. In the meantime, please be diligent in monitoring transaction activity on your account and contact us immediately if you identify any fraudulent transactions.
