We're focused on providing our communities with the right mix of leading banking products and services while giving you the best possible customer service. Since we started in Ridgway, Illinois in 1975, we have grown to more than 40 banking centers across six states and lending customers nationwide. While we’ve grown a lot since we first opened our doors, our dedication to serving our customers has never changed. We invite you to learn more about who we are at Banterra, and how we will go the extra mile to serve you.

At Banterra, we understand that banking is about relationships. It’s about understanding your goals and being the financial partner you need to help achieve those goals. We knew that in the beginning when we started as a small bank in Ridgway, Illinois in 1975. We know that now as we continue to grow as the largest, locally-owned bank in the region with more than $2.7 billion in assets.

We have the security and products you expect from big banks, with the local-style, personal service you want in a community bank. Whether you’re a potential or current customer, or one of our valued shareholders, we appreciate the opportunity to serve you. We’re committed to our communities, to you, and to our team members.

Each year, we make a point of keeping you informed of the most important things that happened during the previous year at Banterra. Whether it’s learning about our efforts within the community or gaining awareness for the products and services we offer, company highlights can help you learn more about who we are and what we do.
