When it comes to mutual MDIs, like us, we’re in it for our community two-fold. That means we’re not only reinvesting deposit dollars into our neighborhoods, but we’re also putting the residents first by offering financial services and products that best fit their needs. Plus, our leadership and board teams are local to our area – we live, work and play in Cincinnati just like our customers do.

We all need community, whether that’s your tight knit group of neighbors or greeting familiar faces at your favorite grocery store. That’s what humanity is all about.
