Who is Austin Bank?
For 113 years and four generations, the Austin Family has been deeply ingrained and involved in the Texas banking industry. Since 1909 when John F. Austin, Sr. became a founder of First State Bank of Frankston, and continuing throughout war, the Great Depression, and the turbulence of an oil boom, the Austins bring honor to their industry with strong leadership, active involvement in their communities and enduring relationships with customers and employees.
"Austin Bank wishes to continue expansion in the Southeastern half of Texas," comments Jeff Austin III, Chairman of the Board. "Moving into the Cleveland market in 2019 and The Woodlands in 2021, we were able to put together strong and successful teams implementing the community banking experience. Montgomery is the next natural progression of this model."
"As with any successful business, the strength of our organization lies in our people," shares Jeff Austin, Jr., Senior Chairman of the Board. "We are proud to claim an outstanding team that not only enthusiastically upholds our Bank's core values of honesty and integrity, but also actively supports the communities we serve."
Austin Bank is pleased to have Jed Crow, SVP/Market President, and Leigh Gilland, AVP/Retail Office Manager, on our team to help with the establishment of Austin Bank's newest location. These individuals have lengthy banking histories and excellent reputations for their community service and we look to them to continue the Austin Bank legacy.
CEO and President, Russ Gideon, adds, “We are excited about our new office in Montgomery. Our earnings, asset quality, capital and staff of professionals are well positioned for the Bank to continue delivering exceptional service and strength in performance.”
