It may seem like just yesterday that Cedar Rapids Bank & Trust put down their financial roots, but 2021 marks CRBT’s 20th anniversary of serving the community’s banking needs.
Wendy Nielsen, the bank’s first vice president of marketing and public relations, says the ability to make decisions locally sets CRBT apart.
“Our clients work directly with the people making the decisions,” Ms. Nielsen noted. “Those people also live, work and play here and understand our market.”
CRBT also features the products and services of a large regional bank with the personalized service of a community bank, providing a depth of expertise through a team that offers “depth of knowledge, creativity and ability to execute.”
Above all, CRBT calls Cedar Rapids home.
“We’re a community bank, and ‘community’ is half of that,” Ms. Nielsen said. “We feel it is our responsibility to set up as a leader and be part of the solutions to make our communities a better place to live, work and play ... Our employees are focused on ‘doing the right thing’ every day to keep our four constituencies – employees, clients, shareholders and community – in balance.”
