First International Bank & Trust is excited to announce Jason Appel as Sioux Falls Community President. Jason joins FIBT with nearly 20 years’ experience in financial services.

“I’m impressed by the tradition the Stenehjem family has created in First International Bank & Trust. They have a deep commitment to the communities they serve, not just in words, but through 110 years of action. I’m humbled to be chosen to help develop and lead that commitment to Sioux Falls and our region,” Jason says.
