BankWest

Community bank in South Dakota

First National Bank in Philip has, for over 110 years, served a large part of western South Dakota by providing quality banking based on customer service. We are proud that some relationships started three generations ago continue today. When you walk into our lobby, you will certainly be met with a smile and most likely will be greeted by your first name. The heart and soul of our bank is our people. We have been blessed with many long term employees which means you don’t have to get to know a new person every time you come in to do business. You often hear that there is no such thing as customer loyalty any more but we are living proof that loyalty still exists. Our customers are the finest people in the world and our best source of new business. Word of mouth advertising from a satisfied customer is truly priceless. We are a locally owned bank, and all deposit and lending decisions are made here. We have no corporate board of directors that is more interested in profit than service. Owners, directors and staff all live here and know first hand the problems we face and the opportunities we experience.
