Catalyst Bank is acquiring Lakeside Bank, which will merge into Catalyst Bank upon completion of the transaction. Through November 6, 2026, Lakeside Bank will continue operating under its current name as a division of Catalyst Bank. During this time, customer accounts and transactions will remain in Lakeside Bank systems until the conversion begins on November 7, 2026.

If you have questions about your account before the transition is complete, please contact the employees at Lakeside Bank. After November 9, 2026, all account information will be fully transitioned to Catalyst Bank systems. The same local team will continue serving you, now as Catalyst Bank.

As part of the acquisition, we will convert from Lakeside Bank systems to Catalyst Bank digital platform and software. You can expect:

• Contactless Debit Cards – making transactions quick, effortless, and secure!
• Card Management – turn your card on and off, get instant alerts when your card is used, and set spending limits.
• Enhanced Online + Mobile Banking experience – updated layouts and navigation features that give you the ability to take control of your finances on your own time.
• And much more…

Conversion is the process of securely moving your account information and services from Lakeside Bank to Catalyst Bank. This process will begin on November 7, 2026, and will be completed when the new banking and digital systems are live on November 9, 2026. Please look for mailings and emails containing important information and any actions you may need to take.

As we make this exciting transition, we want to meet your expectations every step of the way. Our team is here to help. Please visit one of your local branches with any questions.
