Peoples Bancorp, the parent company of Peoples Bank, received all necessary regulatory approvals for the merger between Peoples and Premier Financial Bancorp, with Peoples as the surviving corporation, and for the mergers between Peoples Bank and Premier’s wholly-owned subsidiary banks, Citizens Deposit Bank and Trust and Premier Bank, with Peoples Bank as the surviving bank.
In addition, Peoples’ shareholders and Premier’s shareholders approved the merger agreement earlier this month.
