Browning founded Bank of Utah on Dec. 1, 1952, with 16 employees and less than $1 million in assets. Today, the bank remains locally owned and operated, and the Browning family remains involved in the bank with Frank W. Browning as chairman of the board, Benjamin F. Browning as vice chairman of the board and CEO, and Jonathan W. Browning as secretary to the board. Historically, Bank of Utah became the first bank in the state to issue a credit card, called the "Cred-O-Matic Shopping Plan." It was also the first Utah bank to become a "motor bank" by adding a drive-up teller window to its building.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.standard.net/|title=First With Most in Banking & Still Offering More|publisher=Standard-Examiner, Oct. 12, 1975, Advertising Supplement.}}</ref> Since its creation, Bank of Utah has acquired the following banks: Bank of Ben Lomond (1974), Bank of Brigham City (1978), Bank of Northern Utah (1978), First Commerce Bank (1999) and American Bank of Commerce (AmBank) (2018).<ref>{{cite news|title=Bank of Utah to Acquire American Bank of Commerce|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180914215253/https:/utahbusiness.com/bank-of-utah-to-acquire-american-bank-of-commerce/|work=Utah Business|date=14 Sep 2018|access-date=14 Sep 2018|archive-url=https://utahbusiness.com/bank-of-utah-to-acquire-american-bank-of-commerce| archive-date=14 Sep 2018}}</ref> Summary: Please note that all contributions to Christianpedia may be edited, altered, or removed by other contributors.
