Amegy Bank Business Credit Cards

The year was 1990, and Walter Johnson was convinced that there was a better way to do banking in Texas. The 80’s had permanently altered the Texas banking landscape and the community needed a Texas bank to help it recover from a difficult period. Walter knew that Texans would want a bank large enough to offer the products and services of big banks, but with a Texas feel and understanding. He also imagined a bank that was dedicated to the community. Walter convinced 135 Houstonians to make an investment to help establish a bank built by Texans, for Texans. In February of 1990, this new bank started with one branch, 20 bankers, $50 million in assets and plenty of optimism!

We are pleased to share with the communities we serve a summary of our organizational reflection toward the many events over the past 12 months that have challenged our reality of inclusion and equality. The result is a deeper commitment to live our core values, and to report actions that contribute positively each step of the way on this continual journey where everyone can strive and achieve a better life. Amegy Bank’s mission is to create a culture of caring bankers who support the growth of businesses, families and the communities we serve. We have a strong, ongoing commitment to diversity and inclusion and have always welcomed different voices, backgrounds and perspectives into our organizational culture. However, we know there is much work to be done to build a more equitable, just and united society, and we are committed to being a part of the solution. Equally important to our mission of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) are the actions we engage in over time.
