Transactions with related parties

Certain officers and directors (and the companies with which they are associated) are customers of, and have had banking transactions with, the Bank in the ordinary course of the Bank’s business. In addition, the Bank expects to continue to have such banking transactions in the future. All loans and commitments to loan to such parties are generally made on the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other persons. In the opinion of management, these transactions do not involve more than the normal risk of collectability or present any other unfavorable features.
An analysis of activity with respect to loans to officers and directors of the Bank for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 was approximately as follows (dollars in thousands):
