History

Founded in 1923 by eight members as Gate City Building & Loan Association. In 1923, William D. Gillespie served as its first President until 1931. [3] [4] He was succeeded by F. B. McAneney, who led the bank during the Great Depression – a period of significant challenge for North Dakota’s financial institutions. In 2000, Steven Swiontek was appointed President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO), and in 2019, he transitioned leadership to Kevin Hanson. [5] [6] In 2024, its total assets reached US$3.5 billion.
