Monroe Bank was founded in 1892 with the desire to provide outstanding customer service and to remain rooted in our community.

We continue that tradition today, with our “community” growing to encompass Monroe, Jackson, Lawrence, and Indianapolis-area counties.

As a locally owned and operated bank, we're committed to keeping important financial decisions within our communities. Decisions on mortgage loans, investment services, and small business start-up loans are made by local people—your neighbors and friends.

One of the main ways we serve our community is by recognizing employees who take part in local service. Many Monroe Bank employees serve on the boards of community organizations and take active leadership roles within their towns and cities.

Volunteer activities are at the heart of Monroe Bank: Each year we take a half-day off for our annual Day of Caring. Teams of Monroe Bank employees participate in a wide variety of service projects, from community improvement projects to helping the elderly or poor.

Our employees provide 5,000 to 6,000 hours of community service each year, and we provide an average of $80,000 to our communities in annual corporate contributions.

We also sponsor numerous events in our communities, such as our quarterly seminar series Financial Choices for Women Today and an annual Economic Forum. Our Main Office hosts an Art Gallery to showcase the work of area artists.

We want to be your bank of choice. With our banking expertise, commitment to our community, and our excellent customer service, at Monroe Bank You're Worth More.
