We currently bank with First National and want to be sure there are no international ties with Security First Bank. We prefer to bank with an American-based institution. – 13. October, 2009

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.
