Membership
As the primary trade association for commercial banks in
the state, the South Dakota Bankers Association (SDBA) serves
as an advocate promoting and enhancing the profitability,
leadership and image of the state’s banks.
SDBA associate members are board-approved organizations
that provide significant and ongoing services to the South
Dakota banking industry. Associate members enjoy priority
advertising, sponsorship and promotional opportunities in SDBA
publications and at events.
Becoming an associate member of the SDBA increases your
company’s visibility and credibility with the state’s banking
industry executives and decision makers through the following:
This monthly
publication provides information on important events and
trends in the banking industry. New associate members are
introduced in the magazine upon joining and again in the
April edition. A complete description of each company’s
products, services and contact information is included.
Associate members also receive a 10 percent discount on
advertising they purchase in the magazine.
South Dakota Bank Directory
This official business-to-business directory published
annually includes a prominent associate member section that
includes a complete description and contact information for
each associate member. Each SDBA member bank, branch and
associate member receives one complimentary copy.
SDBA Web Site
Associate members are listed on the SDBA’s Web site (www.sdba.com)
with links to their sites. Advertising is available in the
SDBA’s E-News.
Annual Convention
Advertising, exhibiting and sponsorship
opportunities for the SDBA/NDBA Annual Convention are
offered first to associate members. This convention is
attended by bankers from South Dakota and North Dakota.
Other Benefits
Associate members are the first to know about SDBA
advertising, exhibit and sponsorship opportunities and receive
reduced membership rates.
Associate members receive a
subscription to the South Dakota Banker magazine; notices of SDBA events, training and educational opportunities; state
legislative news and other publications.
The SDBA provides
