Clarksville-based F&M Bank is expanding its banking services from mid-Tennessee to Nashville.

Pending regulatory approval, F&M Bank will establish its first full-service branch in Davidson County at 1701 West End Ave, further strengthening its presence in the state’s largest city.

F&M already has a mortgage office in Nashville.

This will be the bank’s 19th full-service facility in central Tennessee.

“Davidson County is a natural progression into the next phase of our strategic plan,” said Sammy Stuard, president / CEO of F&M Bank, in a press release.

“Currently, with banking and mortgage facilities in the Nashville area, we have built a strong team of people providing quality financial service. “

A mid-Tennessee regional bank, F&M Bank is one of the leading independent banks based on asset size in Tennessee.

in 2020, the bank’s assets grew to $ 1.3 billion and its mortgage division made $ 1.1 billion in loans, F&M officials said.

F&M Bank operates full-service bank offices in Dickson, Montgomery, Putnam, Robertson, Rutherford, Sumner, Stewart, Williamson and Wilson counties, in addition to mortgage offices in Brentwood, Nashville and Murfreesboro.

Founded in Bumpus Mills (Stewart County) in 1906, F&M Bank moved its headquarters to Montgomery County in 1989.
