BankORION's History

Life is a partnership. Since 1890, BankORION has been a locally owned, locally managed, independent bank. Ours is a bright partnership. BankORION is the oldest bank headquartered in the Quad City metropolitan area. At its core, a partnership is just people helping people. When people partner together they have the ability to live their best lives. Through partnership, they can attain goals, dream big and pursue happiness. If life is a partnership, then we are that bright partner who is here to make it worthwhile. A trusted friend. A guiding star. A steady leader. A reliable advisor. A community bank to help you navigate life. What do you want most in a bank? Access to your money? Convenience? Great rates? Financial guidance? Borrowing power? Those only happen through a great banking partnership. The following are a few highlights of our history:
