BBNC ALASKA NATIVE CORPORATION HISTORY<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA) was enacted in 1971. In preparation for the Trans-Alaska Oil Pipeline, native land disputes were settled, and Alaska was divided into 12 Regional Alaska Native Corporations (ANCs). Among those 12 original Regional ANCs was Bristol Bay Native Corporation (BBNC), the parent company of Glacier Federal, LLC.

\n\nBBNC was formed on December 18, 1971, with corporate offices in Anchorage, Alaska. BBNC\u2019s mission is to enrich the Native way of life, and the BBNC Vision is to protect the land in the Bristol Bay region, celebrate the legacy of its people, and enhance the lives of BBNC Shareholders.

\n\nBBNC has over 10,000 shareholders composed of the three Native cultures of Bristol Bay (Eskimo, Indian, and Aleut). BBNC is a diversified holding company. Investments and services include a stock portfolio, cardlock fueling, corporate services, corrosion inspection, environmental engineering and remediation, oilfield and environmental cleanup, labor, and government services.

\n\nBBNC’s founders took their reverence for the land and Bristol Bay Native cultures and built BBNC into a diversified corporation with more than $1 Billion in annual revenue. This revenue is shared with our shareholders who have received more than $70 Million in dividends since our inception. BBNC has been, and continues to be, a major contributor to Alaska’s economy.

\n\nThe Alaska Native lifestyle is one of isolation in more ways than literal village life. The 86,000 US citizens enrolled under ANCSA experience nonexistent economic opportunities, high unemployment, a very high cost of living, and limited access to healthcare, education, and training. Twenty-two percent (22%) of Alaska Natives live below the poverty line. Unemployment in the villages is five times the national average. Our shareholders desire the opportunity to take responsibility and earn fair wages.

\n\nBBNC shareholders desire the opportunity to take responsibility and earn fair wages. With BBNC, Shareholders have opportunities for education assistance, dividend income, and employment; and, they may transfer shares to immediate family.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t
