David Jones has been named the chief operating officer for the two Muskogee branches of the American Bank of Oklahoma.

Jones was formerly CEO for the Bank of Oklahoma’s six branches in southeast Oklahoma. He spent 16 years with BOk, and worked for Citizens Bank for 16 years before it merged with BOk in 1994.

“To take care of the local community you need local people, and you need to be able to make local decisions,” Jones said. “That’s what we’re doing at American Bank of Oklahoma. It’s more of a community bank. I have complete authority here to make all the decisions. When I was at Bank of Oklahoma, all the decisions were made in Tulsa.”
