OCONEE FEDERAL SAVINGS AND LOAN ASSOCIATION is the continuation and outgrowth of the Seneca Building and Loan Association, which was chartered by the State of South Carolina in February 1924.
In 1958, we changed our name to OCONEE SAVINGS AND LOAN ASSOCIATION when our first branch office was opened in Walhalla. In 1992, our Association was issued a federal charter, at which time we changed the name to OCONEE FEDERAL SAVINGS AND LOAN ASSOCIATION.
In 2011, the Association completed a mutual-to-stock conversion, creating OCONEE FEDERAL FINANCIAL CORP. and OCONEE FEDERAL, MHC. Oconee Federal Financial Corp. is a federally-chartered corporation that was formed to be the mid-tier stock holding company for Oconee Federal Savings and Loan Association. Oconee Federal, MHC is a federally-chartered mutual holding company formed to be the mutual holding company of Oconee Federal Financial Corp. Oconee Federal Savings and Loan Association is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Oconee Federal Financial Corp.
In 2014, the Association entered a merger agreement with Stephens Federal Bank, a Toccoa, GA-based mutual savings bank in business since 1933. The acquisition added Stephens Federals three offices in Toccoa and Clayton, GA, to our four existing branches in South Carolina: Seneca (Headquarters), Seneca-By-Pass, Westminster, and Wahalla..
