We are very grateful to our customers for your support and patience through such extraordinary circumstances over these past few months. While our lobbies are officially “open,” you should be aware of temporary processes and limitations necessary to comply with the state’s re-opening guidelines. All customers will be required to wear a mask unless they are unable due to a medical condition. Lobby capacity will also be limited under state requirements, and we strongly urge all customers to call ahead or make an appointment to ensure the best experience possible.

First State Bank is 100% employee owned and that makes a difference!
Our Story
First State Bank was established by a group of Monticello businessmen in 1945. The company’s foundation has always been a commitment to the communities we serve-a precedent that dates back to our origins during the end of World War II. We’ve grown considerably since those early days, but our tradition of service has never wavered.
Our Services
Experience the powerful combination of modern products and services, delivered through a true community bank model. That means you will always enjoy the comfort, convenience, and quality of service you’ve come to expect, while still having access to the same extensive range of banking products offered by any large regional or national bank.
Our Locations
First State Bank operates several convenient locations throughout Central and East Central Illinois. We offer the longest lobby and drive-up hours in Champaign, Piatt, and Douglas counties. If you prefer the comfort of your own home or office, then we’ll bring the bank to you through our full suite of online and mobile products, available 24 hours a day!
