Having maintained its financial strength and stability for over a quarter of a century, Macon Bank & Trust Company has also earned a “Best of Bauer Bank” distinction.

“Bauer rates banks based on their overall financial condition,” reports Karen Dorway, president of the rating firm, “and has been doing so for over 40 years. Bauer does not rate based on how much a bank gives back to its community, but sometimes I wish we could. The employees of community banks, like Macon Bank & Trust Company, feel a responsibility to help their community grow and thrive,” continues Dorway. “It gives me great pleasure to acknowledge that a bank that measures its success by the success of its neighbors and friends, does so from such a solid financial foundation.”

Since its inception in 1919, Macon Bank & Trust Company has been an enthusiastic supporter of the people and organizations in the communities it serves, which is also where its employees live, work and play. A dedicated banking partner, yes, but so much more. Supporting the community is what it does, and what it has done for 105 years. This community-focused bank wouldn’t have it any other way.
