# Maxwell State Bank Partners with DCI to Bring High-Tech Solutions to Heartland Bankers

HUTCHINSON, KAN., July 22, 2025 — DCI, the privately-owned developer of core processing,
digital banking, and fintech processing solutions, is proud to announce its partnership with
Maxwell State Bank, a cornerstone of Iowan community banking for over 75 years. With a
shared belief in trust, transparency, and service-driven innovation, this strategic partnership
honors legacy while rising to the expectations of a digital-first generation.
Home to emblems like Freedom Rocks and Sherman tanks that represent the importance of
sovereignty and protection, Maxwell State Bank believes these values go hand-in-hand with
their customers’ financial freedom. This belief has inspired bold moves toward securing
customer privacy and data integrity while bringing future-facing digital banking technology
directly to rural families and customers.
Executive Chairman Ronald Ingram shared his vision for MSB:
“Maxwell State Bank embodies the resilient, decentralized spirit of American community
banking—a system that fueled innovation and industrialization by empowering individuals and
families, farmers, American innovators, and businesses large and small. Our ‘Think Global, Act
Local’ philosophy is rooted in the belief that individual sovereignty, strong communities, and
private property rights are the bedrock of a prosperous nation. Maxwell is a small community
with a massive idea: big hearts and bold visions always triumph over giants. DCI’s platform is
key to making these dreams tangible, building on their battle-tested core banking technology.
DCI is core to our cadres of Davids, with whom we will take on the Goliaths of today. This is
Maxwellian thinking.”
DCI, like Maxwell State Bank, has a rich history of service in community banking. But it’s the
consistent exploration and pushing of what’s possible for secure, scalable community banking
technology that allows DCI customers to provide the seamless digital banking experience that
today’s consumers expect. As a result, hometown banks can stay connected with their
customers anywhere, from farmers and business owners to their kids heading off to college or
meeting new milestones across state lines.
“This is exactly the kind of partnership we’re built for,” said Sarah Fankhauser, President and
CEO of DCI. “Our core technology and personalized customer experience provide the
launchpad to help banks like Maxwell State Bank thrive. Together, we’re dedicated to driving
new, innovative offerings that keep them competitive for the modern customer.”
Maxwell State Bank is committed to being the lifelong financial partner for families across Iowa
and beyond. Valuing high-touch customer service, their recent advancements add to their goal
of making every customer feel like a VIP. And at a time when automation and AI often dilute the
human touch, Maxwell is doing the opposite: using technology to amplify trust, streamline
service, and reclaim community banking as the backbone of American innovation.
This partnership with DCI is more than a technology upgrade: it’s a declaration that the future of
banking doesn’t belong only to the big banks or startups. It belongs to our communities and to
the local institutions that never stopped showing up for them.
