History
First United began as Durant National Bank on Oct. 2, 1900 when it first opened its doors in Blue County, Choctaw Nation Territory, which is known today as Durant, Oklahoma. In 1915, Durant National Bank absorbed eight banks in the Oklahoma region, and in 1916, constructed a new building in Durant at 2nd and Main Streets. In 1963, Durant National Bank was renamed to Durant Bank & Trust becoming one of the first banks in Oklahoma to have full trust powers.
Oklahoma native, John Massey joined Durant Bank & Trust in 1966 as a director, and was appointed chairman of the board in 1986. At that time, he also became the majority shareholder and CEO. Greg Massey, joined the bank in 1990, and succeeded his father as CEO in 2003 when the bank had 18 locations in Oklahoma. A series of acquisitions, including the merger with American Bank of Texas in 2016, has allowed the bank to grow to 85 locations in Oklahoma and Texas with $5.5 billion of assets.
