The TS Bank Institute is a 501(c)(3) organization
affiliated with TS Bank located in Treynor, Iowa.
Created through an idea generated by the Guttau
family, owners of TS Bank. Based upon the belief that America’s economic challenges are rooted in a general lack of financial literacy.
The Institute was created in 2009 through a
partnership with TS Bank and the Treynor Community School District. The goal of this partnership was to create a comprehensive K-12 financial literacy program that meets Iowa’s Core Curriculum 21st Century financial literacy standards.
