Northwest Bank is a family owned bank based in Spencer, Iowa and we're proud to serve a growing number of locations in Iowa and Nebraska. We are active members of the communities we serve and our bankers make decisions locally—a commitment you can bank on.

We completed a twenty five year strategic plan describing our commitment to remain family owned and focused on serving the communities we currently serve as well as the communities we hope to serve in the future. Our plan is based on a few, simple core values. These values are expressed in our commitments to our communities, customers and employees.

We are committed to helping our communities prosper and meet the challenges of an increasingly complex world.
We are committed to providing our customers with the best community banking services and products.
We are committed to our employees having quality jobs, education and opportunities to prosper.
We learned our values growing up on a century farm near Holstein, Iowa. The values of hard work, respecting your neighbor, and living with integrity are as true today as they were when we grew up on the farm. We both graduated from Iowa State University and made our banking careers right here at home. Community banking has been our sole career focus for over 35 years. We focus all our energies on banking and the betterment of our customers, employees, and the communities we serve. We are not people who have other business interests. Community banking is our only business and our passion!
