About Us
WE ARE HERITAGE BANK...
Arnold Caddell, a life-long Northern Kentucky resident, founded Heritage Bank in 1990 with a group of fellow business owners.
"In the wake of large bank mergers, we continue to preserve the concept of local community banking. We have created a bank where Northern Kentucky residents can go for advice and service for their financial needs from local professionals they know and trust." - Arnold Caddell
Heritage Bank is more than just a bank; we are your neighbors, friends, school volunteers, community advocates, and fellow residents. We are committed to knowing our customers personally, and providing a friendly, local banking experience.
As your community bank since 1990, Heritage Bank has grown to become one of Northern Kentucky's most respected financial institutions. Our core values of outstanding service to our customers have helped us remain strong and independent.
We're proud to say that we have our roots where others have branches.
