Security Bank picks up national honors

Posted in:

ATLANTA — Security Bank, with offices in Laurel, Hartington, Coleridge Osmond, and Allen, was just named among the top extraordinary banks in the U.S.

The honor comes from the Institute for Extraordinary Banking ™. The bank was recognized with the Institute’s Money Smarts Banky™ Award for Financial Literacy Education, Above-and-Beyond Customer Service Banky™ Award, and BanksGiving™ Banky™ Award for Extraordinary Philanthropy.

These awards are a direct result of their extraordinary service to their customers and community through a commitment to financial literacy programs, its systems and follow-through that create a consistent level of proven, exemplary customer service for clients, and their commitment to the strategic direction of their communities and to making profound impacts within the communities they serve, said said Keith Knudsen, President/CEO of Security Bank.

“Our team’s dedication to exceptional customer service, empowering local youth through financial literacy, and our unwavering commitment to our communities are a few of the many reasons we’ve been honored with the Money Smarts Banky™ award, Above-and-Beyond Customer Service Banky™ award, and the BanksGiving™ Banky™ award this year,” Knudsen said.

The Extraordinary Banking™️ Awards emphasize the indispensable contribution community banks have on their communities— how deeply woven into the fabric of the community they are. Their role in elevating the national economy is profound yet often misunderstood.

Community banks are the beacon that illuminates their local communities and the pillar of small business success.

Roxanne Emmerich, Chair and Founder of The Institute for Extraordinary Banking™️, said “Community banks recognize aspirations, dreams, and silent hopes of small businesses and individuals in their communities. The heart and soul of an extraordinary community bank is the visionary blueprint for the community’s success. Those banks, Top 5 Percenters™ in the industry, were chosen to receive this year’s Banky awards.”
