JOHNSTON, IOWA (August 7, 2025) — The Iowa Bankers Association is proud to announce the launch of its new public image advertising campaign, "IOWA BANKS. Your partner through it all." This initiative spotlights the importance of having a strong, lifelong banking relationship at every stage of life’s journey.

The new campaign launches today and aims to educate and engage Iowans on the value of building lasting relationships with their local banks that are rooted in trust, collaboration, and shared goals.

"We know that evolving technology is rapidly changing the ways in which people bank," said Jenica Lensmeyer, vice president of marketing and industry relations for the IBA. "However, a banking relationship will always be important — ensuring financial security and guidance through all of life’s milestones — whether it’s buying a car, saving for college, purchasing a home, or planning for retirement."

The statewide campaign will include TV and radio spots, print ads, social-media content, and digital marketing efforts, all under the unifying message: "IOWA BANKS. Your partner through it all." This tagline reflects Iowa banks’ commitment to helping individuals and business owners grow their financial knowledge and navigate their financial journeys.
