Fourth Capital is Now a Division of Volunteer State Bank
As of July 1, 2024, Fourth Capital and Volunteer State Bank have legally merged. Our team at Fourth Capital is excited to join this extraordinary community bank and continue serving as a financial partner and resource for our customers and communities.
Fourth Capital will operate as, ‘Fourth Capital, A Division of Volunteer State Bank’, maintaining independent operations and branding until system conversion, expected in 2025.
What does this mean for you?
For now, you will continue business as usual. Fourth Capital Bank and its branches will maintain normal, independent operations, while we work to integrate systems and operations into Volunteer State Bank. Today and in the future, you can expect the same outstanding service and support from the same friendly faces. Once the system conversion is complete, this integration will provide you with enhanced resources and services.
What happens next?
Prior to system conversion, you will receive a detailed conversion guide in the mail, so you will know exactly what to expect. This guide will include details about bank accounts and features, information about the conversion process, important dates, and answers to frequently asked questions. Any changes will be communicated well in advance, and we’ll provide step-by-step guidance to make the transition as seamless as possible.
