First National Bank of Omaha has agreed to acquire CCB Financial Corporation, the parent company of Country Club Bank, in a deal that will deepen the Omaha-based lender's presence in Kansas City and push its total assets to approximately $35 billion. The transaction, announced on 1 May 2025, combines two family-owned institutions.

CCB Financial brings $2.2 billion in assets to the combination, adding a Kansas City franchise with $1.8 billion in deposits, a trust company with $2.8 billion in assets under management and 20 branches in Kansas and Missouri. Financial terms of the acquisition were not disclosed.

OWNERSHIP

Both institutions are privately held and family-controlled, a shared characteristic that the parties emphasised as a cultural foundation for the combination.

FNBO operates in multiple states and offers retail, commercial and credit card products.

APPROVALS AND TIMING

The transaction is subject to customary regulatory approvals, including review by federal and state banking authorities. FNBO said the deal was expected to close by year-end 2025, pending regulatory approval.
