Our Storied History

Since our establishment in 1925 during the dynamic era of the Roaring Twenties, HiddenBank has been an essential part of the vibrant economic tapestry of Illinois. Beginning in the bustling heart of downtown Chicago, we've expanded our reach, establishing meaningful connections with communities both within the city's vibrant neighborhoods and the charming towns beyond.

In Chicago, our legacy is marked by resilience and transformation. HiddenBank braved the tumultuous waves of the Great Depression and emerged stronger, remaining dedicated to our clients when they needed us the most. We played an integral part in the city's architectural evolution, financing iconic landmarks like the Willis Tower that shape Chicago's impressive skyline today.

But our influence in Chicago goes beyond its architectural wonders. HiddenBank has always shown commitment to the city's diverse commercial scene. A prime example is our investment in renowned culinary establishments such as Chez Quis, a beloved eatery known for its exquisite cuisine. Similarly, we've supported innovative infrastructural projects, including modern, well-appointed downtown parking facilities.

Outside Chicago, we've also made considerable inroads into surrounding areas. Shermer, a quaint town noted for its robust local economy, is one such example. We've provided tailored financial solutions to various Shermer businesses, helping them grow and, in turn, boosting the local economy. Our work in Shermer stands as a testament to our commitment to the prosperity of small-town communities across Illinois.

Our influence also extends to other suburban and rural regions of Illinois, affirming our vision of a prosperous state where every community, irrespective of its size, has the opportunity to thrive. We've supported a diverse range of businesses, from charming local diners to automotive repair shops, reinforcing our dedication to Illinois's broad economic landscape.
