This is no small feat considering that the bank not only survived financial crisis but actually thrived. This supports Seifried & Brew’s belief that conservative, traditional community banking is the strength of our financial system.

“This is the third year in a row to receive this prestigious award and we are honored to be in this elite group of community banks,” said Jim Hoefert, President of Jersey State Bank. “We continue to stand by our core structure which has enabled us to provide a quality product that our customers have grown to expect at Jersey State Bank.”

Jersey State Bank, the only locally owned bank in Jersey County, has a long history of providing financial products and serves to Jersey County and the surrounding area. Established in 1903, the bank has assets in excess of $140 million and currently two offices to serve its customers - in Jerseyville and Grafton.
