Bank of the Rockies

The oldest bank in Montana, Bank of the Rockies, N.A., was founded in 1883 and was first called the Bank of Meagher County. It was started with $50,000.00 in capital. In 1885 it received its national charter and became known as The First National Bank of White Sulphur Springs, a name which it kept for the next 113 years. The Bank has had several owners since it was founded. In 1973, the Bank was purchased by Michael E. Grove, the current President and Chief Executive Officer. Bank of the Rockies is a subsidiary of Countricorp, a bank holding company, of which Mr. Grove is also the President and majority shareholder. In April 2001, the Oldest Bank in Montana settled on our new name--Bank of the Rockies, N.A.
