On January 2, 2015, First Security Bank opened its second Lexington, Kentucky location. Located at 345 Ruccio Way, it will be more commonly known as the Bank’s Wellington Banking Center. The Owensboro, Kentucky based bank first expanded its service into the Lexington market in March 2012, opening its Hamburg Banking Center at 2352 Sir Barton Way. Since that time, First Security Bank’s assets in the Lexington area have substantially exceeded expectations, which developed the need for an additional location.
The southwest Lexington location is a former bank branch located at the corner of West Reynolds Road and Ruccio Way. It is situated in the front of the Meijer’s shopping center, three blocks west of Nicholasville Road and the Fayette Mall.
The Wellington banking center plans on hiring several new employees and will be under the direction of Sr. Vice President and Lexington Market Executive, Lance Lawrence.
“Being part of First Security Bank’s entry into the Lexington market has been one of my proudest professional accomplishments. We have been able to exceed projections by assembling a team of experienced banking professionals that not only excel in growing customer relationships, but also work well with one another in a team-oriented work environment. I am excited about our continued growth as we open another Lexington location,†says Lawrence.
First Security Bank is a $535 million asset bank with 11 banking centers in Owensboro, Bowling Green, Franklin and Lexington, Kentucky, as well as Evansville and Newburgh, Indiana. Focusing on relationship banking and the ability to make decisions locally, First Security Bank creates value through unparalleled service.
