At Busey, we’re a community organization, committed to helping customers’ and communities’ dreams come true. Since we first opened our doors in 1868, we have built on a tradition of close relationships and broad financial capabilities. Looking back, we’ve come a long way in 150 years, yet the core values—dedicated associates, strong customer partnerships and thriving communities—instilled years ago are still the cornerstones of Busey. Look back at the milestones that shaped who we are today…. To achieve our vision, we consistently fulfill promises made to Pillars—associates, customers, shareholders and communities. By investing in our associates and empowering them to exceed the needs of our customers, and working together to strengthen our communities, our shareholders are rewarded with a vibrant, thriving company.
