Their Attentive Banking Stands the Test of Time
For more than 130 years, First Merchants has been building a bank that's different. One that's focused on the needs of our customers. In fact, an advertisement from 1914 reads, "The bank of personal service is one of the business creeds of our bank. It is the desire of the management to extend individual service to each one of its customers, to give courteous and watchful attention to their individual needs."
 
While much has changed about banking since 1914, our commitment to attentive service is unwavering.  Our tagline is “Helping You Prosper” and this permeates every First Merchants Bank employee from executive management to all our bankers in the retail space.  Our focus is on being the most attentive, knowledgeable and high-performing bankers, we strive to enhance the financial wellness of the diverse communities we serve. 
 
Finally, we are committed to supporting our communities…it is more than a responsibility. It is our passion. For us, social impact isn’t just a financial contribution or a campaign, it’s part of who we are. It’s the foundation of our organization and it permeates every part of our business.  We come from diverse backgrounds, and drawing from our unique experiences and perspectives, we change the world in the ways only we can – neighbors helping neighbors – to foster unity, grow our impact, and inspire others.
