“As a community bank, FCNB Bank is a family-owned, locally operated, independent organization that strives to provide banking as it should through customer relationships,” commented FCNB Bank’s President & CEO Scott Perkins. “With our conversion to a state-chartered bank, we will substantially benefit from ensured safety and soundness, reduced regulatory costs and the advocacy to provide local lending decisions. It’s an exceptional move for our bank and our customers.”
With regulatory authority now provided by The Missouri Division of Finance, FCNB Bank will partner with experienced examiners that are knowledgeable of local economic conditions and provide a common-sense approach to community banking.
