Business
First Busey Corporation serves as the financial holding entity for Busey Bank, delivering a broad array of retail and commercial banking solutions to individual, corporate, institutional, and governmental clientele across the United States. The organization operates through its distinct divisions: Banking, Wealth Management, and FirsTech. The Banking segment provides customary checking and savings accounts, alongside various lending products such as residential real estate, home equity lines, consumer, commercial, agricultural, and real estate construction loans, complemented by cash management services. These offerings are accessible through its network of banking centers, ATMs, and digital platforms. The Wealth Management division offers comprehensive investment management, trust and estate advisory, financial planning, philanthropic guidance, and tax preparation services. It also assists with business succession and employee retirement planning, alongside offering investment strategy consulting and securities brokerage. Through its FirsTech segment, the company supplies advanced payment technology solutions, including walk-in payment processing at retail agent locations, online and mobile bill payment, customer service phone payments, direct debit services, electronic payment consolidation via the ACH network, and lockbox remittance processing. FirsTech also provides tools for billing, reconciliation, and treasury management. Building upon its regional foundation, First Busey has significantly broadened its reach through strategic growth. Most recently, the acquisition of CrossFirst Bankshares Inc., completed in March 2025 with the bank merger into Busey Bank projected for June 2025, substantially expanded its footprint. This transformative partnership extends its market presence into key metropolitan areas including Kansas City, Wichita, Dallas/Fort Worth, Denver, and Phoenix. The combined entity is poised to serve clients from 77 locations across 10 states, boasting approximately $20 billion in total assets, $17 billion in deposits, and $14 billion in wealth assets under care. Additionally, the company enhanced its Chicagoland presence with the acquisition of Merchants & Manufacturers Bank in April 2024. First Busey Corporation was established in 1868 and maintains its headquarters in Champaign, Illinois.
