History

With the building of the First National Center in the 1960s, it was made clear that the bank officials had to establish the overall cost of the project. It was determined that total expenses, including the $2.5 million already paid to Woodmen and adjoining property owners for land, would come to $13.9 million. Next, it became necessary to form a holding company because there is a statutory limitation on the amount of money a bank is allowed to invest in brick and mortar. The U.S. Code draws the line at 50 percent of the financial institution's capital and surplus account, and they had decided to invest as much in that building, literally, as First National's entire net worth. A parent corporation, acting technically in its own name and on its own behalf, can go ahead and incur a sizable debt for construction purposes without running afoul of federal law, as long as it owns at least 80 percent of its subsidiary's stock. With that in mind, First National Bank's directors created (August 27, 1968) and its shareholders approved (January 21, 1969) First National of Nebraska, Inc.

In 2008, ComputerWorld named First National of Nebraska as the third best in a top 12 list of "Green-IT Companies"

Banking Subsidiaries

Effective September 30, First National Bank of Kansas, First National Bank of Colorado and Castle Bank will operate as divisions of First National Bank of Omaha, a subsidiary of First National of Nebraska.

Castle Bank N.A.

Website

Castle Bank began its banking venture over 150 years ago.

Castle Bank, N.A. (CBNA) was formerly known as First National Bank in DeKalb. In June 2000, the bank's parent company at that time merged First National Bank in DeKalb with affiliated Castle Bank Harvard and Castle Bank Sandwich. The Sandwich affiliate resulted from an earlier 1999 merger between The Sandwich State Bank and The Bank of Yorkville. With the 2000 merger, CBNA increased its assets and expanded it operations into Kane, Kendall and McHenry Counties. The FNNI affiliation was established in January 2002 when FNNI purchased Castle BancGroup, Inc, the parent company of CBNA. Concurrent with the purchase, Castle BancGroup, Inc. adopted the articles and by-laws of First National of Illinois, Inc. and presently operates under this name.

First National Bank Colorado

Website

Since 1881, First National Bank has been in business in Colorado.

First National Bank Columbus

Website

First National Bank in Columbus was originally chartered in 1906. After being chartered as the German National Bank, the name was changed to the Central National Bank during World War I. In 1961, the bank changed their name to First National Bank and Trust Company. For close to a century, First National Bank is the only Columbus financial institution that did not close during the depression. The offices in Norfolk began in the fall of 1993 after research indicated that the opportunity for another commercial bank was feasible. A new charter was filed and granted for the community and First National opened for business in December 1993. In 1995, the charter of First National Columbus and Norfolk were merged.

First National Bank Kansas

Website

First National Bank Kansas was established in Kansas in 1993 as part of one of the oldest and most successful financial organizations in the Midwest, First National of Nebraska.

First National Bank of Kansas (FNBK) was chartered in 1993 when FNNI purchased approximately $80 million deposits from a failed financial institution. The bank purchased additional deposits approximating $220 million from another financial institution in 1994. To profitably invest this large deposit base, FNBK purchased credit card receivables from an affiliated bank. Most of the receivables originated outside the bank's assessment area. While credit card receivables still represent a large percentage of bank assets, credit card lending is not a strategic goal for the bank.

First National Bank North Platte

Website

First National Bank North Platte was organized on March 9, 1886, and opened on May 10 of that same year. First National of Nebraska purchased FNBNP on October 15, 1988. From 1983 to 1993, locations in Alliance, Chadron, Gering, and Scottsbluff allow FNBNP financial services to customers throughout Western Nebraska. The latest acquisition took place in August 1994 with the purchase of the Alliance National Bank. In April 2010, the Gering branch was closed.

First National Bank South Dakota

Website

In 1962, "Valley State Bank' was chartered in Yankton, South Dakota. In the early 80s, the bank was purchased by First National of Nebraska. This incorporation led to many changes including a new facility and a name change to First National Bank South Dakota in 1994.

First National Bank Fremont

Website

First National Bank Fremont formally known as Fremont National Bank & Trust began on November 13, 1871, with the signing of the Articles of Agreement. It is the first and oldest bank in Dodge County.

Platte Valley State Bank

Website

In 1944 a group of Kearney businessmen raised enough capital to charter the Platte Valley State Bank. The bank was located on the corner of 23rd Street and Central Avenue, Kearney, Nebraska. In 1962 ground was broken for the construction of the new "ultra-modern" round bank and the "Circle of Service" was launched. At that time the bank had eight million in total assets and ten employees.

By June 1998, the "Circle of Service" was expanded to a "Financial Center" with new and expanded services all under one roof and nearly $320 million in assets and 43.27% of the deposit market share in the city of Kearney. Three years later services were expanded to include the Grand Island area and by 2005 a new facility was open for business along the 281 Corridor in Grand Island, Nebraska.

Today Platte Valley State Bank & Trust Company is part of the First National Nebraska, Inc. community of banks in Nebraska, South Dakota, Colorado, Kansas, Texas and Illinois. Platte Valley State Bank & Trust is focused on central Nebraska with major investments of people and capital in the Kearney and Grand Island communities. It is one of the top banking, insurance and financial service companies in Nebraska.
