The Value & Benefits of a Family-Owned Community Bank
The options can feel endless when you’re looking for a new bank. It seems like every financial institution has some new promise or promotion designed to get your attention. If you want to get away from all the gimmicks, consider your local community bank. We know there are many solid reasons to bank where you live.
1.Personalized Service
At Casey State Bank, we know that there is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all plan for banking. We take the time to get to know each of our customers so that we can offer you financial solutions and advice that fit both your goals and your budget.
The service doesn’t stop when you leave your family-owned community bank! Our online banking and bill pay options allow you to take control of your finances, no matter where you are.
2.Local Decision Making
When you’re setting up your small business or trying to buy your first home, you can’t wait 5-9 business days for someone hundreds of miles away to decide if your dreams are worth the investment. You need the right financial support now.
When you bank with Casey State Bank, you get the local advantage. Our lending experts work out of our local branches, so you can connect with the right advisor and start building your future as soon as possible. Whether you’re searching for auto loans, real estate loans, small business loans, or anything in between, the team at Casey State Bank has you covered.
3.Community Involvement
We don’t just invest in our community because that’s where our branches happen to be located. We live here, too! Our staff puts in hundreds of community service hours yearly to help support our neighbors and the small businesses that are essential to our local economies. We want to be the best community bank in the best community, and we are willing to put in the effort to make that happen.
While we work to improve our neighborhoods now, we also believe in building toward the future. We think that higher education should be accessible to everyone. That’s why we offer scholarship opportunities for high school seniors so that they may pursue their dream careers. But that’s not all… We also have a Banzai financial literacy program, which teaches students to navigate adult financial dilemmas with real-life scenarios. Across the nation, educators are struggling to fulfill state-mandated literacy standards without sufficient financial support. However, Casey State Bank is stepping in to bridge this gap by providing innovative software, interactive learning materials, and expert presentations for teachers.
4.Stability
Any financial decision you make will likely come with some risk. However, we believe that not every choice you make with your hard-earned money should be a risky gamble. When some large banks may try to push you into products or services to make more profit, we present all options available to you. We offer financial advice from experience and expertise, not from the search for institutional gain. You can rely on guidance from your community bank to lead you in the direction that you feel most confident.
5.Trust
Becoming a longstanding community bank doesn’t arise from in-your-face slogans or pie-in-the-sky promises. It comes from years of reliable service and the trusted knowledge to handle the most significant decisions of you and your neighbors with care. When you bank with Casey State Bank, you are setting yourself up for a lifelong partnership with a financial team that has your community’s goals at the forefront of their attention.
