What is the FAME Award?
FAME — Fostering Advocacy & Meaningful Engagement — is MBA’s highest honor celebrating outstanding advocacy efforts by MBA-member banks. Introduced in 2025, the award celebrates institutions that consistently go above and beyond in advocating for the banking community.
To qualify for the FAME Award, banks must complete at least five of seven key advocacy initiatives throughout the year. These efforts reflect a strong commitment to policy engagement, community partnership, and contributing to the continued growth and professionalism of Missouri’s banking industry.
This year, 31 banks were recognized with the FAME Award by the MBA, and we are honored to be among them. Joining the very first class of honorees reflects our dedication to advocacy, customer-focused service, and building relationships that create real value for the people we serve.
We extend our gratitude to the Missouri Bankers Association for this distinction and greatly appreciate our team. whose passion and commitment make achievements like this possible. We look forward to continuing the to invest in initiatives that strengthen our industry and the communities we are proud to serve.
Congratulations to all the 2025 FAME Award recipients!
