For the business owner, it's important to consider all the options to get the highest rates on savings and the lowest rates for loans.

1. Look for a Utah bank that is customer-focused and can work with you to make the most of your money.

Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done
Get a home loan from a Utah banking institution
A small hometown bank can be a good bet when you're looking for a home loan, construction loan or even a loan for a land purchase. When checking on Utah banks, don't overlook smaller banks, who may be more willing to go the extra mile for their customers.
I recommend: Heritage Savings Bank in St. George offers loans for mortgages, new construction and building lots as well as combination loans.
Find Utah commercial banking that will cater to all your business needs
You don't want to go here and there to accomplish banking in Utah. Wouldn't it be nice to find a bank to handle all your needs, personal and business? You can find a Utah bank that helps businesses become stronger, and wants to keep your business all at one bank. It doesn't hurt to ask for special deals on multiple accounts, especially when the bank is trying to earn your business.

Utah commercial banking is reinventing the role of the bank
The west is a wide-open frontier for banking. Some Utah banks are providing more than just savings and checking accounts; they're dispensing business advice and targeting industries such as agribusiness or senior housing and care. A bank catering to businesses should have several different options, depending on your average balance, number of transactions and whether you are a sole proprietor or a corporation.
I recommend: Bank of the West offers small business and commercial banking products, as well as personal accounts. Check out all of their business account options before you make a decision.
