History

The Ulster County Savings Institution was chartered by the New York State legislature on April 12, 1851, with the first meeting of the incorporators occurring on May 1.[3]
After 40 years in business, the bank faced a crisis in 1891 when its treasurer and assistant treasurer were accused of stealing more than $400,000, resulting in a temporary closure.[4] Both received prison sentences as a result of their actions, and the bank reopened.[5]
In September 2011, Lisa Marie Cathie was named the new President & CEO of the bank, succeeding Marjorie Rovereto.[1] In 2015, Glenn B. Sutherland replaced Lisa M. Cathie as new Interim President and CEO of Ulster Savings Bank.
Branches
Branches are currently located in Gardiner, Kingston, New Paltz, Phoenicia, Poughkeepsie, Red Hook, Saugerties, Stone Ridge, Wappingers Falls, Windham, and Woodstock.[6] Additionally, a new branch is planned for Newburgh.[7]
