Founded in 1912, Origin Bank has assets totaling $4 billion as well as $4 billion in deposits, ranking it as a large bank. Origin Bank, whose headquarters are in Choudrant, Louisiana, has above-average access to customer service with all-day support available, great for getting help during the work week. It is a conventional brick-and-mortar bank with access to service representatives at a physical location, in addition to its online and mobile offerings. SmartAsset experts rated the bank 3.9 out of 5 stars, indicating that Origin Bank is a good bank that warrants your consideration. Origin Bank provides customers with a full choice of product offerings, including savings accounts, checking accounts, money market accounts, CDs, IRAs, brokerage accounts, mortgage products and credit cards. It has a fair savings rate compared to the average savings account. The bank's standard checking product maintains a monthly fee of $5.00, making it a rather costly bank for checking. Obtaining a checking account with no monthly fee and a savings account with a high interest rate at the same institution is your best option for returning the most income on your deposits while maintaining easy access to your funds.
