(Aurora, Ind.) - You will no longer find MainSource Bank signs on former branches in the tri-state.

MainSource recently completed its merger with Cincinnati-based First Financial Bank. The deal, first announced in 2017, creates a bank with approximately $14 billion in total assets.

Over the long holiday weekend, former MainSource branches switched banking systems, branding and signage. More than 150 branches of the merged bank are now operating under the First Financial Bank name.

“On Tuesday, May 29, each location will open its doors as First Financial Bank. First Financial reinforces its commitment to go beyond banking by investing in clients and communities through supporting economic initiatives, neighborhood development, and promoting financial literacy education as well as associate volunteerism,” a First Financial Bank news release stated.

Work to switch some branches’ signs will continue through Wednesday, May 30.

“As a part of the merger, First Financial implemented a comprehensive community development plan, which sets forth its commitment to making a positive economic impact and partnering with community organizations. First Financial looks forward to providing a solid financial institution for local residents.”
