NBH Bank's story begins with the formation of its parent company, National Bank Holdings Corporation (NBHC), in 2009. NBHC was created with the vision of building a leading community bank franchise, one that prioritizes high-quality client service and is committed to delivering shareholder results. This journey commenced in earnest in 2010 when NBHC began assembling its banking franchise through four strategic acquisitions within a mere 12-month period. This foundational phase set the stage for NBH Bank to emerge as a significant player in the community banking sector.
Operating as a subsidiary of NBHC, NBH Bank has steadily grown its footprint and service offerings. Headquartered in Greenwood Village, Colorado, within the Denver metro area, NBH Bank has expanded its reach across multiple states, including Colorado, the greater Kansas City region (Kansas and Missouri), Wyoming, Idaho, New Mexico, Texas, and Utah. This expansion has been characterized by a multi-brand strategy, with NBH Bank operating under locally led and community-focused bank names such as Bank Midwest, Community Banks of Colorado, Hillcrest Bank, and Bank of Jackson Hole. This approach allows the bank to maintain a local touch while leveraging the resources and centralized core technology platform of its parent company. Throughout its evolution, NBH Bank has remained dedicated to serving individual consumers, small-to-medium sized businesses, and government and non-profit entities, offering a comprehensive suite of banking products, including commercial and treasury management, robust digital offerings, trust and wealth management, and residential banking. The bank's commitment extends beyond financial services, as evidenced by its 'Do More' events, which have raised significant charitable contributions, and its policy of granting associates paid time-off to volunteer in their communities.
