American National Bank

[Brad]

We discussed this in another Thread, but it looks like American National Bank is going to move ahead with its plans for a bank branch on Saddlecreek Road

BAD LINK REMOVED

It would be west of the intersection of Saddlecreek and Emile Street. I will post a map in a bit.

Seems like it might limit development of the Omaha Steel Casings Property...

Great location for a Bank branch! I'm surprised this stretch hasn't been more aggressively developed already with all the money in UNMC.

They have been holding out for years waiting to see what UNMC and Omaha were going to do with the location of SaddleCreek Road.

Associated Bank of Green Bay, Wis., will acquire Omaha-based American National Bank in an all-stock deal valued at $604 million. American National shareholders will receive 36.25 shares of Associated Bank stock for every one share of American National they own. The deal is expected to close in the second quarter of 2026. American National currently has $5.3 billion in assets and 33 branches in Nebraska, Iowa and Minnesota. After the merger, Associated Bank will have $50 billion in assets and 217 branches in five states.

When banks get bought like this, do they usually change all the routing and acct numbers? I think some do, but I hope not b/c I don't want to have to switch all my bill pays.

Not necessarily. Wells Fargo kept Wachovia's ABA number for some time after the acquisition. US Bank has/had dozens of ABAs.

Sometimes, the acquired is the surviving entity--Wells' ABAs date back to Northwestern National (Norwest). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norwest_C ... ells_Fargo

Having worked through the Bank of the West / BMO merger, the routing numbers will be absorbed by the aquiring institution (the FED and SWIFT networks will just redirect on the back end). There is too much of an impact if they discontinuing the routing numbers. BMO still has some M&I bank numbers from over 10 years ago. I think it is custom across the industry to keep the ABA's active......but they could EVENTUALLY be phased out. Account numbers are known to change to align with their numbering scheme. Also, if your ANB account number is also on the books for a customer at Associated Bank, your account number will change.

Hope this helps.

They might keep it for at least a few years....they'd want to see how it is operated and since everything is about the dollar, see if makes sense operationally to keep it going.

Since ANB is local to Omaha, they may find it the benefit to keep it going.

The tree is part of the Salvation Army tree of lights campaign. If its not the exact same tree, a very similar tree was used at the crossroads when the tree of lights campaign would place their three there. For many years they used a real tree before this Bright Ideas trees came along. They only used a tree like this at crossroads for a few years before it was moved to 90th and Dodge. I doubt another bank is going to come along and kick them out over a few dollars in electricity every year. Just my assumption here, but I would assume Bright Ideas maintains and installs the tree, American National gives them a place to put the tree and powers the tree, and Salvation Army reaps all the rewards.

American National wasn't even mentioned in this post about taking down the tree. That said, it does clear up what I was guessing in the previous post.

I saw a post on Facebook that they are boarding up the sign of the American National at 90th and Maple. It is sad that they are doing this. I wonder what they are going to do after this.

American National was purchased by Associated Bank as mentioned above. They are changing the signage of all the branches.

I knew that, but there are people who want to know what they are going to do with that sign since this branch has the sign built into the building.

[skinzfan23]

Yeah, I wonder as well, I wonder if they can change the lettering at all.

The ANB in La Vista near Southport looks like it's been rebranded, but the rebranding is covered up. Are they waiting for some special date to do the reveal?

The branch in Gretna is the same way and has been for at least two weeks

[ChadJK]

I believe the unveiling has happened and they're all now branded Associated Bank.

[skinzfan23]

Yes, today was the first day for access to the account.

Kind of a pain bc I had fraud and had to close and change all my accounts last month and now I have to do it all over again.

They got quite the launch last night on Reddit. The “oc” letters weren’t illuminated and someone caught a picture.

It was actually the letters "oci" that were out which makes it way worse.

The Salvation Army tree has been put up at 90th and Dodge in front of the bank.
