Iberiabank

Iberiabank, founded on March 12, 1887, originally operated as the Iberia Building Association in New Iberia, Louisiana. Over the years, it underwent several transformations, changing its name to Iberia Savings and Loan Association in 1956, and later to Iberia Savings Bank in 1992 as it evolved into a stock savings bank. The institution rebranded as Iberiabank on November 21, 1997, and transitioned into a commercial bank. Throughout its history, Iberiabank expanded its footprint significantly through numerous acquisitions, including institutions like Jefferson Bank in Gretna, Louisiana, and Orion Bank in Naples, Florida, as part of government-assisted mergers during the financial crisis of the late 2000s. On July 2, 2020, Iberiabank merged with First Horizon Bank, based in Memphis, Tennessee, marking the culmination of a lengthy expansion and consolidation period within the banking sector.
