The First National Bank of Anthony in Harper County near the Oklahoma border was seized by bank regulars Friday. The bank will reopen as a branch of the South Hutchinson-based SNB Bank of Kansas.
The bank has branches in Wichita, Olathe, Overland Park, Anthony, Harper and Mayfield. SNB Bank of Kansas is part of Southwest Bancorp. of Stillwater, OK.
This is the fourth failure of a Kansas financial institution in recent times. The Columbian Bank and Trust of Topeka, Teambank of Paola and Central Federal Credit Union of Lenexa failed in 2008.
