Our History
Over 100 years ago, Arthur J. Smith arrived from New York and used his financial expertise to provide the dream of home ownership for the growing population of Chicago.
Today, as the A.J. Smith Federal Savings Bank, the same commitment to home ownership and community banking that Arthur believed in remains.
From its Midlothian and Orland Park locations, the Bank offers a full line of retail savings and lending services in addition to insurance and investment products.
