Bellevue is home to the newest Republic Bank branch in Northern Kentucky as the regional bank continues its NKY expansion.
Opened to the public on March 14, the banking center is located at 119 Fairfield Ave. New employees have already been hired to support the new branch, including business bankers, business development managers and a universal banker.
“Fairfield Avenue has served as a center of town commerce for years and we’re thrilled to be able to offer our banking services to this vibrant community,” said Jason Payne, the bank’s Northern Kentucky managing director.
There are now four Republic banking centers in Northern Kentucky, with existing locations in Covington, Crestview Hills and Florence. In total, the bank has seven total in the Greater Cincinnati area. Last week, the bank acquired the Cincinnati-based CBank.
“Between our recent acquisition of CBank in Cincinnati, and the opening of this new banking center in Bellevue, we’re excited to become more integrated into this thriving community that I’ve been a part of my whole life,” said Tom Saelinger, the bank’s Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky market president.
Customers have access to full banking services inside the center’s lobby. The bank is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays and is closed on the weekends.
