U.S. Bank’s Proud to Serve Group Recognized for Its Contributions and Achievements

MINNEAPOLIS–(BUSINESS WIRE)–U.S. Bank is being recognized for the contributions and achievements of
its Proud to Serve Business Resource Group. Proud to Serve has been
named one of the Top 25 U.S. Employee Resource Groups for 2015 by the
Association of Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) & Councils.

U.S. Bank will be recognized during the Seventh Annual Honors Award

councils that applied.

U.S. Bank honors and supports the men and women of the U.S. military

the veterans and military families in the communities the bank serves.
Proud to Serve is open to all employees at U.S. Bank.

“It is a great honor to be recognized for our efforts to help make U.S.
Bank a welcoming place for veterans to work,” said Richard Davis,
chairman, president and chief executive officer of U.S. Bank. “Our Proud
to Serve group provides a variety of effective resources for veterans in
the areas of recruiting, employee engagement, professional and business
development, and community involvement. It’s rewarding to provide these
resources to people who have served our country and helped protect our
freedom.”

“The fact that U.S. Bank placed among the top 25 recipients in the first
