Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Recognition as Small Business of the Year by Kansas City's Chamber of Commerce underscores Lead Bank's strong community presence and reputation.
  • The hiring of experienced professionals like Kris Dickson as CFO and Mario Urquilla as Community Development Officer indicates a commitment to strong leadership and community engagement.
  • Innovative partnerships, such as with Outdoorsy for RV-focused lending, demonstrate Lead Bank's ability to adapt and offer niche financial products.

What critics are saying

  • Involvement in legal issues, such as the class action over the 'rent-a-bank' payday lending scheme, could damage the bank's reputation and customer trust.
  • The guilty plea of a former executive for evading anti-money laundering rules raises concerns about internal compliance and governance.
