ABOUT State Bank & TRUST cOMPANY
OVERVIEW
Over a Century of Dependability.
State Bank & Trust Company opened for business on September 16, 1889. Our location was at 110 East Bremer Avenue, and we were quickly known as the "bank with the clock in the middle of the block."
A Nationally Recognized Institution.
At State Bank & Trust Company, we take pride in having received national recognition continuously longer than any other bank in the area. We're known as one of the safest, strongest banks in the nation.
Convenient Locations.
In 1956, the Main Bank Office was moved to 124 First Street SE, downtown Waverly. With a growing customer base and the bank's desire to better serve its patrons, five additional locations were opened: Janesville in 1959, Willow Lawn Shopping Center in 1973 (no longer open), Village Square Shopping Center in 1989 (no longer open), and the addition of Dike and New Hartford in 2007. Most recent is the addition of the South 218 Office in Waverly which has replaced the Village Square Office. The building was finished late 2007, and although it is larger than any of the other five SBT locations, the "main office" still resides at the downtown Waverly location.
A Professional Financial Team.
Great pride is taken in hiring and developing seasoned and highly knowledgeable bank employees and management. Continuing education efforts keep our team up-to-date on the most recent banking trends and forecasts so you can always feel comfortable looking to us as your "Financial Experts".
Growth Opportunities.
Since 1889 when we opened with five employees and $50,000 in capital, we've grown to nearly 50 employees at five locations, with over $15,000,000 in capital and approximately $140,000,000 in total assets. That means more loan opportunities...more services...and more interest-earning accounts available to you. Growth for us means growth shared with our valued customers.
A Full Range of Deposit Services.
Because we know the needs of our customers are not all the same, we offer a wide range of deposit products to suit just about anyone's situation: Money Market Accounts, Individual Retirement Accounts, Savings Certificates of various terms, as well as numerous types of checking and savings accounts.

Business and ag-related loans provide businesses and farmers the opportunity to purchase real estate, for expansion, inventory, equipment and operating expenses.
