Exhibit 14
CODE OF ETHICS FOR SENIOR FINANCIAL OFFICERS OF GLACIER BANCORP, INC.
Glacier Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) has an existing Code of Ethics and Conduct governing professional and ethical conduct of executive officers, including senior financial officers, employees and directors, of the Company and its bank Divisions.
Section 406 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires the adoption of a code of ethics for senior financial officers (including the principal executive officer) of public companies. The Company desires to supplement the existing Code of Ethics and Conduct by adopting this Code of Ethics that is specifically applicable to the Company’s Senior Financial Officers (as defined below).
This Code of Ethics (“Code”) is intended to serve as a source of guiding principles. Senior Financial Officers are encouraged to raise questions about particular circumstances that may involve one or more provisions of this Code to the attention of the Board of Directors, the Audit Committee, or other properly authorized committee (or in the absence thereof, to the independent directors on the Board of Directors), who may consult with legal counsel.

5. | Respect the confidentiality of information acquired in the course of the performance of his or her responsibilities except when authorized or otherwise legally obligated to disclose. Do not use confidential information acquired in the course of the performance of his or her responsibilities for personal advantage. |

Exhibit 14
7. | Use corporate assets and resources employed or entrusted in a responsible manner. |
8. | Do not use corporate information, corporate assets, corporate opportunities or one's position with the Company for personal gain. Do not compete directly or indirectly with the Company. |
9. | Promptly report to the Board of Directors, the Audit Committee, or other properly authorized committee (or in the absence thereof, to the independent directors on the Board of Directors) (a) material transactions or relationships that reasonably could be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest and (b) actual and apparent violations of this Code. |
B. Monitoring and Enforcement
It is also the policy of the Company that:
10. | The Audit Committee, or other properly authorized committee (or in the absence thereof, the independent directors on the Board of Directors) shall have the power to monitor, make determinations, and recommend to the Board of Directors action with respect to violations of this Code. The Board of Directors shall determine, or designate an appropriate person to determine, appropriate actions to be taken in the event of violations of this Code, except for paragraph A.2, with respect to which the Audit Committee shall have such power. |
11. | Violations of this Code may result in disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment. |
