I find your question to be very interesting, and given your preferences, am glad to report that Security First Bank is 100% domestically owned. In fact, we have a very small list of shareholders, nearly all of whom are Nebraskans and South Dakotans. My family, who are originally from Rushville, Nebraska, are the majority owners. We are a state bank, chartered in Nebraska. Our bank holding company, Stockmens Financial Corporation, is based in Rapid City, South Dakota, where my wife and I reside.
As a community bank, our deposits come primarily from local customers, and we make loans to individuals and businesses within our service areas. We are a fairly conservative bank, so have not strayed too far from our Nebraska and South Dakota roots.
