Equitable Bank, established in 1882 as Grand Island Building and Loan Association, has been a cornerstone of the Grand Island community for 140 years. Initially organized by pioneers, the bank has expanded its services to North Platte, Omaha, and Elkhorn. In 2015, Equitable Bank underwent a stock conversion, becoming one of Nebraska’s few fully traded stock companies, with Equitable Financial Corporation (EQFN) now traded on the OTCQX. Despite growth and technological advancements, the bank remains committed to delivering superior customer service while catering to the diverse financial needs of its communities, from supporting local businesses to helping families achieve homeownership and providing sound investment advice.
