As we've grown from one branch in Perryville to 31 branches across Missouri, our mission remains: We provide financial empowerment and make a difference in the lives of our customers. We're small enough to know your name, yet big enough to meet nearly any financial need.

Neighbors helping neighbors

That's the way things get done in Missouri. That's the way our bank began. And that's the mindset that continues to guide us today.

Back in 1891, a group of Perryville neighbors saw the need for a local bank that would put local needs first. (This now seems like common sense, but at the time bigger banks tended to focus their attention on the nation's wealthy.)

We started small, operating out of a single branch for more than 100 years. We served the needs of everyday folks, helping them to achieve their financial goals.

As time passed, we believed more was possible. That's why we changed our name from The Bank of Perryville to The Bank of Missouri. It's why we expanded into Cape Girardeau in 1997. And it's why we've spread our wings in recent decades, expanding our branches across Missouri and our business lines across the nation.

Though our reach and our services have grown since those early days, we remain a community bank at heart. We still view our customers as our neighbors. We still get to know them by name and understand their challenges. Now we pair that familiar banking relationship with strength to meet nearly any financial need.

Our Vision

We make banking easy, whether you visit us in person or on our app. We strive to help communities, businesses, and people thrive through our seamless customer experience, financial empowerment and trusted expertise. We open our doors each day because we know that a secure financial future is the start to a better life. And that’s our goal for each customer.

We help you Live well, Bank well.

The Bank of Missouri is:

  • PROVIDING value to our shareholders
  • GIVING to the communities we serve, through our resources and associates
  • STRIVING to provide financial solutions that meet the needs of those communities

Community Giving

We’re a community bank. Therefore, we’re active in our communities. In fact, The Bank of Missouri is a leader in the communities we serve.

Here’s how we look at it: The Bank of Missouri has been fortunate to achieve many community awards over the years, and we know our community connections have enabled our success. We believe in giving back and showing our appreciation by enabling our employees to serve throughout our communities and doing our part to grow and encourage those around us. We support civic and community groups, through monetary donations and volunteer hours from our own team members. Across Missouri, we support more than 300 different organizations.

As a community bank that’s been around since 1891, we recognize the connection between community involvement and the role we play in the neighborhoods where we do business. That’s why giving back will always be part of who we are. Because when our communities thrive, we all do.
