Guthrie County State Bank |

Overview:
We have been serving Guthrie County since 1931. We established a new facility in Panora in 1998, so we could offer the same friendly, competent and convenient service to the Lake Panorama and Panora areas that we have provided to the Guthrie Center area over 70 years.
We are a locally owned, independent community bank, who offers all the services and products of larger financial institutions, but with the friendliness and participation of a small town approach. It is our intention to be available when our customers need us, and to be an active citizen of the communities of Guthrie Center, Panora and Lake Panorama.
We recently completed an extensive remodeling in our Guthrie Center facility to create a better customer-employee relationship. The addition of many computers has prepared us for our new services of check imaging and Internet banking.
We offer all types of loans to our customers, including personal, real estate, commercial and agriculture. Our availability to customers extends strongly into the real estate market, including residential, as well as agriculture property. It is our desire to be the foundation of any commercial growth that will be beneficial to our area.
It is our feeling and belief that our vast repertoire of deposit accounts can serve most any desire that our customers should possess. |
