Unless you have been living under a rock the last few months, you are fully aware of the economic
uncertainties that now face our country. We have witnessed the tightening of credit markets,
bank failures and bank mergers, serious economic and legal issues with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac,
the nationalization of banks and a turbulent stock market. With good reason, this has caused most
bank customers serious concerns.
The Monitor Bank has been doing business in our community since 1911. We remain very well capitalized,
have strong liquidity, and have never made a sub-prime loan. We don't need, nor will we accept, any
government bailout money. Our bank is rated 5-Stars by Bauer Financial, Inc. (www.bauerfinancial.com).
Being a real community bank, we recognize both the need to serve our customers, and the responsibility to
protect their deposits. We are locally owned, and our entire staff lives in the immediate area.
We are dedicated to banking the old-fashioned way, while offering the products you need. Your business
is valued and we hope it shows in our service to you.
The Monitor Bank … safe, sound, secure and ready to serve you.
