1st Source Bank has received the top prize in the Community Lender category from the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) for the 12th year in a row. The award focused on community banks headquartered in Indiana with less than $10 billion in assets, honors 1st Source Bank for delivering the greatest number of SBA loans in the state of Indiana in 2024.
“The Indiana District Office of the Small Business Administration is proud to recognize 1st Source Bank as our top Community Lender of the Year once again,” said Stacey Poynter, SBA Indiana District Director. “They have been the recipient of this award every year since its inception in 2013. We recognize their dedication to assisting Indiana’s small businesses.”
“We’re honored to receive the SBA Gold Level award for the 12th year in a row,” said Ryan Bell, Manager of Small Business Banking at 1st Source Bank. “To be chosen consistently is a testament to 1st Source Bank’s unwavering commitment to supporting small businesses in our communities.
