To provide more convenience for customers, Beartooth Bank, a division of American Bank Center, is adding a second bank located at 123 N. Broadway Ave. in downtown Billings. This 7,000-square-foot facility is expected to open in 2021. Beartooth currently has one location at 4130 King Ave. W., Billings.

In addition to offering personal banking services, this new downtown location will focus on providing effective and efficient banking solutions for businesses.

It will feature American’s Branch of Tomorrow concept, which includes industry-leading technology and a model of service that provides more convenience for customers.

Customers will have one point of contact for all their banking needs. Services offered downtown include commercial lending, ag banking, retail, e-banking, consumer lending and home mortgage. There will be an opportunity for future expansion to also meet customers’ trust and insurance needs.

“We are excited to serve our customers in this new location where we will continue to offer the high-quality service and local decision-making they have come to expect from us,” said Sheri Nicholson, Beartooth Bank president. Nicholson plans to retire later this fall and Allen McCormick will be the new market president. A lifelong resident of Montana and originally from Lindsay, he has 40 years of experience in the banking industry.
