The Missouri Department of Economic Development (DED) today announced that Lead Bank is expanding to Kansas City’s Crossroads district. The expansion will include a $3.6 million capital investment and is expected to create 12 new jobs.
“It’s because of expanding Missouri companies, like Lead Bank, that we have great pride in our financial services industry,” said Mike Downing, director of the Missouri Department of Economic Development. “In providing traditional banking and lending services as well as financial consulting and advising, Lead Bank is encouraging business growth and economic opportunity for the Kansas City community. We’re happy to partner with them as we work together to move Missouri’s economy forward.”
Lead Bank is expanding with a third full-service branch in Kansas City’s Crossroads district. The new facility will put Lead Bank in a better position to serve the region’s commercial clients. Additionally, a more central location will provide better accessibility to clients across the Greater Kansas City region.
