About CBI
CBI has been the voice of independent banking in Iowa since its inception in 1971. The principal objective of the organization was and is to represent the independent banker in state legislative affairs. However, increasing complexities in banking and competition from an expanding array of industries led to the establishment of additional goals for the organization but always focusing exclusively on the needs of independent community bankers.The mission of Community Bankers of Iowa is to promote public endorsement of independent banking and to support and secure an environment that is favorable to independent ownership and local control of Iowa banks.
