The history of Security Savings Bank dates back to April 25, 1914, in the small community of Slifer, Iowa, when a small group of farmers met and decided a bank was needed in the area. As a result, they organized and chartered Slifer Savings Bank. Having survived the depression of the early thirties, the Bank was relocated to Farnhamville on June 1, 1934, when the charter was changed to Security Savings Bank.
In November 1989, the Bank moved to the current facility located at 320 Garfield Avenue in Farnhamville. Two additional offices were purchased in October 1995 in Harcourt and Lehigh. In December 1996, the charter was moved to Gowrie, leaving the main bookkeeping in Farnhamville. Security Savings Bank stepped in and purchased the banks in Boxholm and Dayton when the communities were losing their banks. The Boxholm office opened in June 1997 and the Dayton office in 2007.
