Our History The story of Three Rivers Bank of Montana, an independent, community bank in Kalispell, Montana is one of a locally owned financial institution growing with the Flathead Valley residents it serves. In 1973 eleven local businessmen, later called the “Sterling 11,” set out to start Kalispell’s fifth bank. These businessmen, led by A.J. “Jack“ King, secured $600,000 from community investors in initial capital to begin the bank venture. Upon approval from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and Harold Pitts, the State of Montana Commissioner of Banking, a new bank charter was approved to form the First Security Bank of Kalispell. In 1999 First Security Bank changed its name to Three Rivers Bank of Montana to set the bank apart.
