The money market mutual fund became a formidable competitor to the bank account. First Internet Bank in Indiana was founded in 1998. They once held all of the keys to the banking kingdom. They are/were the business owners, demanders of capital and loans, and significant depositors. I'm bullish on community banking.

First Internet Bank of Indiana is primarily a pure Internet play that does not enjoy the same brand splash as ING. Fulton Bank, headquartered near my home, follows a traditional commercial bank strategy, pursuing the operating accounts of businesses from areas surrounding their branches.
