Simmons First National Corporation

A regional financial holding company, Simmons First National Corporation runs Simmons Bank, a chain serving personal and business customers, mortgage lending, and wealth management across six Mid-South states. It began in 1903 when Dr. John Franklin Simmons, a physician, opened a bank in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, at the corner of Main and Barraque streets; the "First" in its name was added in 1960. In 1984, a Simmons customer made the world's first intercontinental ATM withdrawal, from a machine in Sydney, Australia.
