First Interstate Bank distinctive features and the Scott family heritage

The Scott family: three generations of bank leadership

First Interstate is one of the few large publicly traded US banks that remains continuously family-controlled. Homer Scott Sr. founded First Interstate in 1968 by purchasing the Bank of Commerce in Sheridan, Wyoming. Homer Scott Jr. led the bank through much of its 20th-century expansion across Montana, Wyoming, and the Pacific Northwest. The third Scott generation has continued the bank’s leadership and growth in the 21st century. The Scott family’s continued involvement reflects a conservative, long-term banking culture and is unusual among regional banks of First Interstate’s size.

The February 2022 Great Western Bancorp merger

On February 1, 2022, First Interstate completed its merger with Great Western Bancorp, Inc., a Sioux Falls, South Dakota-headquartered regional bank with approximately $13.5 billion in assets. The all-stock deal was valued at approximately $2 billion and added approximately 175 branches across 9 states: Arizona, Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, and South Dakota. The combined company kept the First Interstate name and the Billings, Montana headquarters; the merger of equals roughly doubled First Interstate’s size from approximately $18 billion to $32 billion in assets at closing, and extended the bank’s footprint from a 6-state Mountain West and Northwest regional into a 14-state Western and Midwestern bank.

Mountain West and Northwest specialty

First Interstate’s competitive position is rooted in being the dominant regional bank for Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, and parts of Oregon and Washington. These are markets that mainstream national US banks often serve only thinly, leaving local banking relationships open for community-focused regionals like First Interstate. The bank serves agricultural and ranching customers, oil-and-gas businesses, mining operations, hospitality and tourism businesses (Yellowstone, Glacier, the Tetons), and the broader Mountain West small-business economy.

About First Interstate Bank: history and the Scott family banking dynasty

Origin: 1968 in Sheridan, Wyoming

First Interstate Bank was founded in 1968 when Homer Scott Sr. purchased the Bank of Commerce in Sheridan, Wyoming. Sheridan is a small Wyoming town near the Montana border, in the heart of the historic Western US ranching and energy economy. Homer Scott Sr. saw an opportunity to build a community bank serving the Mountain West agricultural, ranching, and small-business economy. The “First Interstate” name was eventually adopted as the bank expanded across state lines into Montana, Idaho, and the broader Mountain West.

20th-century expansion across the Mountain West

Through the 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s, First Interstate steadily expanded across Montana (its home state since the early 1970s), Wyoming, Idaho, Oregon, Washington, and South Dakota through both organic growth and acquisitions of smaller Mountain West community banks. The Scott family maintained controlling interest and operational leadership through multiple generations, providing continuity that distinguished First Interstate from many other regional banks of comparable size.

The 2010 IPO and 2010s growth phase

First Interstate BancSystem went public on NASDAQ in March 2010 under ticker FIBK. The IPO provided capital for accelerated growth across the Pacific Northwest and additional Mountain West markets. Through the 2010s, the bank pursued a series of smaller acquisitions to expand the Oregon, Washington, and Idaho footprints.

The February 2022 Great Western Bancorp merger

The most significant transaction in First Interstate’s history was the February 1, 2022 merger with Great Western Bancorp, Inc., a Sioux Falls, South Dakota-headquartered regional with approximately $13.5 billion in assets and 175+ branches across the Midwest. The all-stock deal was valued at approximately $2 billion and roughly doubled First Interstate’s size. The combined company kept the First Interstate name and the Billings, Montana headquarters, and extended the bank’s footprint from a 6-state Mountain West and Northwest regional into a 14-state Western and Midwestern bank with approximately $30 billion in assets.

First Interstate today

First Interstate Bank is now a $30 billion regional bank with 300+ branches across 14 US states. The Scott family continues to play a significant role in the bank’s leadership and culture. The bank serves both consumer (checking, savings, mortgages, credit cards) and commercial (commercial banking, agricultural lending, energy lending, treasury management) customers across the Mountain West, Pacific Northwest, and Midwest.
