Featured Member: Bank of New Hampshire
Featured member, Bank of New Hampshire, has been a cornerstone of financial life in the Granite State for nearly two centuries, and its Littleton branch at 125 Main Street continues that tradition right in the heart of our community. As the oldest independent bank in New Hampshire, BNH brings big-bank capabilities with the warmth, accessibility, and local commitment that residents and business owners in the greater Littleton area have come to count on.
194 Years of Banking on New Hampshire
Founded in 1831, Bank of New Hampshire has grown into a $2+ billion institution with 21 offices across New Hampshire and southern Maine, while remaining a mutual financial institution fully committed to the communities it serves. That independence matters: decisions are made locally, by people who live and work in the same towns as their customers. The Littleton office serves as a hub for the North Country, with nearby branches in Lincoln and Whitefield providing additional access across the region.
The bank’s mission is straightforward and enduring: to deliver innovative solutions and exceptional service while helping employees, customers, and communities build brighter futures. That mission has earned Bank of New Hampshire recognition as the best local bank for small business, best commercial lender, and best financial planner and wealth management provider, according to New Hampshire Business Review. New Hampshire Magazine has also recognized BNH for best personal banking and best financial planner, and Business NH Magazine named it the Financial Services Business of the Decade.
Services for Every Stage of Life and Business
Whether you are opening your first checking account, growing a small business, planning for retirement, or managing complex commercial finances, Bank of New Hampshire offers a full range of solutions under one roof.
For personal banking customers, BNH offers checking and savings accounts, money market accounts, CDs and IRAs, card services, and student loans. The bank’s Prestige Plus program provides additional benefits for qualifying customers, and robust digital banking tools allow members to manage their finances anytime from their phone or computer.
Business customers have access to a dedicated commercial banking team with deep local expertise. Services include business checking and deposits, a full suite of business lending options, cash management, merchant services, and business credit cards. For business owners looking to streamline operations, BNH’s cash management services cover everything from remote deposit capture and ACH processing to payroll services and property management tools. The bank recently launched its Peak Impact Loan, designed to get business owners the capital they need quickly and without guesswork.
Wealth management services are available through a team with more than 300 years of combined experience, offering retirement planning, investment advice, institutional asset management, and financial advisory services through BNH Financial Services.
Community First, Always
What truly sets Bank of New Hampshire apart is its deep investment in the communities where its branches operate. Through its Banking on Kindness initiative, BNH contributed over $800,000 and 3,400 hours of volunteer service to 262 organizations in a single year alone. From building homes with Habitat for Humanity and supporting food pantries across the state to funding health centers and backing first responders, the bank puts its resources to work far beyond the teller window.
In 2026, BNH’s Contributions Committee is prioritizing affordable housing, and local organizations working in that space are encouraged to apply for funding or sponsorship support through the bank’s website.
