All Crews & Associates employees and First Security Bank Little Rock banking, lending, trust and wealth management, and corporate credit staff are moving to the new First Security Park complex off of Cantrell Road in Little Rock.

The relocations from First Security Center and administrative staff from other locations will take place over the next 30 days.

In 2022, First Security Bancorp purchased the property on Rodney Parham Road near Interstate 430 in Little Rock, where it established its Little Rock headquarters.

The campus at 4001 Rodney Parham Road includes 275,000 square feet of office space on 31 acres of land in a prime Little Rock location. First Security acquired three of the four office buildings in the deal.

Fidelity National Information Services Inc. (FIS) maintains the large seven-story building and approximately 15 acres of the property. This location will now house administrative and sales offices for First Security Bank Little Rock, as well as Crews & Associates, First Security Bancorp’s investment banking firm.

Those offices are currently in downtown Little Rock at First Security Center on President Clinton Avenue and in west Little Rock at The Ranch on Arkansas Highway 10.

“Securing the location and existing buildings in west Little Rock provided us with the opportunity to invest in our customers and employees in the central Arkansas market by combining our banking, lending, trust and wealth management, as well as incorporating Crews & Associates investment banking staff in one of the most centrally located commercial spaces in the Little Rock metro area,” said John Rutledge, president of First Security Bank Little Rock. “We look forward to the benefits the move will offer our team in our efforts to serve our customers and employees through more effective communication, collaboration and teamwork.”

FIS provides First Security Bancorp’s core banking system and has been a partner for more than 40 years. The facility provides the required infrastructure for a backup secondary data center to complement the new state-of-the-art primary data and operations center recently constructed at First Security Bancorp headquarters in Searcy.
