Independence Bank’s charter can be traced back to 1909, when Farmers & Merchants Bank opened in McLean County, Kentucky. The modern-day history of the bank began in 1971 when Charles A. Reid and Maurice E. Reisz purchased Farmers & Merchants Bank in McLean County and Providence State Bank in Webster County.
In 1997, the two small banks were incorporated under one name, Independence Bank. With the new name, the bank began a rapid expansion into surrounding communities in Western Kentucky. First to Henderson and Owensboro, then over the next few years to Sebree, Beech Grove, Hawesville, Lewisport, Bowling Green and Paducah.
Today, Independence Bank continues to break new ground with innovative financial products. For your personal needs, Independence Bank of Kentucky offers free checking and free savings, as well as the convenience of online banking. For businesses, the bank also offers online banking, business checking and a range of business or agriculture loans.
