Chairman's Message
“As we look ahead, we remain focused on building a future where our keiki, our communities, and our ‘āina can thrive. We know this requires not just financial performance, but intentional action rooted in our values.”
– Peter S. Ho
Chairman and CEO, Bank of Hawai‘i
The Environment
ʻĀina
Land, earth (literally that which nourishes).
While often translated simply as “land,” ‘āina holds a deeper meaning for Native Hawaiians. It encompasses all that sustains life—land, ocean, sky, fresh water, plants, and animals—reflecting a holistic and interconnected view of the natural world. This perspective influences how we think about environmental stewardship today: using resources thoughtfully, caring for what we depend on, and ensuring future generations can do the same.
Our People
Laulima
Cooperation, joint action; group of people working together; to work together, cooperate
We believe in the power of laulima—many hands working together toward a shared goal. Rooted in the Hawaiian value of collective effort, laulima embodies our approach to people strategy: grounded in care, unity, and the understanding that our success is built on the collaboration and contributions of every team member.
Our Community
Kaiāulu
Community, neighborhood, village
We understand that the strength of our communities is deeply tied to the well-being of our island home. Bank of Hawai‘i continues to stand alongside the individuals and organizations working to address some of Hawai‘i’s most pressing challenges—from housing stability and education to environmental resilience and disaster recovery. We deepened our community partnerships in 2024, provided financial support to critical initiatives, and empowered our employees to give back with genuine aloha, compassion, and a culture of respect.
Strong Governance
Pono
Goodness, uprightness, morality, excellence, well-being, prosperity, welfare, equity, duty, just, virtuous, in perfect order, accurate, correct, necessary
Our strong corporate governance practices reflect our responsibility to protect the interests of our customers, employees, shareholders, and communities. We are committed to ethical business practices that reflect our core values and support long-term resilience.
