About Us

About Union Bank 
Union Bank and Trust Company is a privately owned, Nebraska bank that offers complete banking, lending, investment and trust services.  Through its progressive, customer-focused management style, the institution has grown into a thriving, financially diverse organization.  The bank's success is further built on three basic beliefs; providing excellent customer service, employee satisfaction where employees have the opportunity to excel, and diversification by offering a broad base of financial products.

The bank has thirty-seven full service and loan production offices in Nebraska and Kansas.  In addition to Lincoln and Omaha, branches are located in nineteen Nebraska communities and the Kansas City metro area.  Founded in 1917, Union Bank is the third largest privately-owned bank in Nebraska with bank assets of $1.6 billion and trust assets under management of $9.3 billion as of December 31, 2007. 

What Sets Us Apart 
Most banks offer similar services. It's how those services are delivered and how the bank treats you as an individual that sets it apart. Here are a few examples of what makes Union Bank different:

Stability
Over forty years of family ownership has provided Union Bank with a consistent direction and long-term relationships with our customers and employees. Half of our senior managers have been with the bank for over twenty years, and one hundred-fifty of our employees have worked here ten years or longer.

Relationships
Knowing our customers is of utmost importance to us. This relationship-driven approach enhances our ability to provide the best service and solutions for individuals, families and businesses.

Flexibility
Local ownership gives us the flexibility that national banking chains simply don't have. We enjoy creating solutions for customers that do not fit a "cookie cutter" approach. Large banking chains cannot be as flexible due to their sheer size and bureaucratic structure.

Nebraska Ownership
Being family owned and operated means we're more accessible. We do not have multiple layers of decision-makers spanning the midwest or the entire country. This close proximity to customers enables us to meet the needs of the community and avoid the 1-800 number or unanswered voice mail problem so prevalent with larger financial institutions.

Timeliness
Our size and streamlined organizational structure enable us to react quickly to the needs of our customers. Such reaction includes providing timely answers.

Community Involvement
We all live and work here. We understand the role a financial institution should play in its community. Union Bank's financial commitment to the community is substantial, and our employees give generously of their time and talent.
