Our story begins in 1875, just seventeen years after Minnesota became a state. For over 150 years, we've been locally owned and deeply rooted in our communities. We've lived, worked, thrived, struggled, rejoiced, mourned, and succeeded right alongside our neighbors.

In 2003, we brought two community banks together to form one unified identity: Profinium—a name inspired by our mission to provide PROfessional FINancial solutions for the new MillennIUM.

Then came 2008.

As the Great Recession swept across the country, we—like many of you—faced uncertainty and hardship. But we chose a different path. Rather than retreat, we leaned in. We saw this challenge as an opportunity to test our resilience, adapt, and innovate.

We asked ourselves: What if banking could be more than a transaction? What if it could be life-changing?

So, we took a bold stand against “boring banking.” We committed to creating something greater—a place where people don’t just do business, but feel inspired. We adopted a new mindset and a new purpose:
"Achieving Dreams—Together."

With this new vision, we charted a course forward. We committed to taking meaningful action—creating legendary client experiences, delivering unrivaled service, and investing in cutting-edge technology to support our clients in every stage of life.

And it worked.

We emerged from the economic crisis stronger and more connected to our purpose. That reflection led to a renewed focus: How can we keep evolving? How can we go even further?

That’s when our tagline became:
“Amazing IS Possible.”

Because it is.
You have dreams.
We have the expertise and passion to help you achieve them.
When vision is clear and a plan is in place, incredible things happen.

Today, you may see this message throughout our brand:
"Your Amazing is Possible."

Why? Because it’s true. Achieving dreams takes courage, determination, grit, and a partner who believes in you. That’s us. We’re here to cheer you on, to walk with you, and to help bring your dreams to life—whatever they may be.

We’re so thankful to you—our clients and communities—for joining us on this journey. It’s a privilege to be part of your lives and your dreams.

Over the past 140+ years, we’ve experienced highs and lows. We've faced challenges, celebrated victories, and kept growing. We know what it takes to succeed—and we’re not done dreaming.

Your Amazing is Possible. And we can’t wait to help you achieve it.

We love strengthening our communities and can't wait to hear about your organization and event.
