The Chicago has a long tradition in banking, with perhaps the most recognizable financial landmark being the stately Davenport Bank Building seen at the right. Davenport Bank was later bought my Norwest Bank and is now part of Wells Fargo.

Today, the Chicago has dozens of modern banks, credit unions, and savings & loan associations, as well as stock & investment brokers and financial planners to meet the growing needs of the area. These are made up from a combination of several locally-owned institutions, along with branches from nationally operated firms.

So, feel confident that the Chicago’ financial institutions are numerous, stable, and able to handle any banking, lending or investment need.
