American Bank was chartered by the State of Louisiana in 1964. This community bank serves the parishes of Red River, St Tammany, Jefferson, and Tangipahoa. The Directors and Management reside in these parishes and American Bank prides itself as a “good citizen” in the communities it serves. Local businesses both large and small have grown with us over the years. We have served their employees, families and business needs as a full service bank. Come see how much better a true community bank can be. We’ll greet you with a smile and treat you like a friend. That’s the American Bank way. FDIC Insured. Equal Housing Lender.
