MidWestOne Bank: A Legacy of Community and Financial Expertise
As one of the largest banks headquartered in Iowa, MidWestOne Bank has built its reputation by providing a full suite of financial services tailored to meet the needs of both individuals and businesses. From consumer and commercial banking and lending to private banking, mortgage, wealth management, and trust services, MidWestOne has the expertise and resources to support its clients’ diverse financial needs.
At the core of MidWestOne’s mission is a commitment to helping neighbors succeed. “We believe the positive actions of each one of us contribute to the success of us all,” says Market President Devin Boyer. This belief drives the bank’s dedication to empowering individuals and organizations in the communities it serves, including Clive. MidWestOne Bank works best with clients who are looking for a relationship-driven financial partner that offers both personalized service and sophisticated solutions.
What truly sets MidWestOne Bank apart is its proactive, relationship-focused approach. “We strive to be the preeminent relationship-driven community bank where our expertise and proactive approach generate meaningful impact for our stakeholders,” says Boyer. The bank prides itself on delivering personalized care while leveraging its deep expertise to provide comprehensive solutions. This balance of small-town care with big-bank capabilities makes MidWestOne the go-to financial partner for many in the area.
In the summer of 2024, MidWestOne Bank joined the Clive Chamber of Commerce, recognizing the chamber’s role in fostering community connections and professional development. “The Clive Chamber has several programs that facilitate the professional growth of the next generation of leaders, and we’re excited to be a part of that,” Boyer explains. Through its involvement, the bank hopes to strengthen its ties within the community and continue contributing to the growth of Clive’s businesses and residents.
MidWestOne Bank’s story began in 1934, founded by Ben S. Summerwill, affectionately known as “Grandpa Ben.” Originally named Iowa State Bank & Trust, the bank has maintained its original charter and headquarters in downtown Iowa City. Over the years, the name has changed, but the bank’s dedication to its community remains the same. Grandpa Ben’s legacy is the bedrock of MidWestOne Bank, guiding the company’s mission of creating positive impacts for its customers and the broader community.
As MidWestOne Bank celebrates its 90th anniversary in October, the company is marking this milestone with a series of events. On October 8, the bank will close early to partner with United Way, allowing employees to volunteer in their local communities. A week later, on October 15, MidWestOne will host a Customer Appreciation Day at its branches, inviting customers to join in the celebration with a sweet treat.

What makes MidWestOne special, both for its employees and clients, is its commitment to its people. “We are small enough to care and big enough to deliver,” says Boyer. MidWestOne prides itself on hiring and retaining top talent who work as one team, focused on creating meaningful, positive outcomes for their clients.
