The Indiana Bankers Association works collectively to improve the business environment for banking to a far greater extent than any single institution could accomplish on its own. Because the success of this endeavor is dependent upon the participation of its members, the IBA has established various recognition programs to honor outstanding member support. The programs below recognize those members that have demonstrated continued support and participation in the Association.

Diamond Associate Member status is reserved for those associate members that provide the highest level of support.
