MidFirst Bank announced it has expanded its Oklahoma City headquarters campus through the acquisition of a 250,000-square-foot office building adjacent to its existing facilities, reinforcing its long-term growth strategy and deep commitment to its home state of Oklahoma.
The building, formerly known as “Building 14” of the Chesapeake Energy campus, now operated by Expand Energy, will support the bank’s continued expansion as it broadens its footprint across multiple states and business lines.
MidFirst Bank, which is headquartered in Oklahoma City, said the purchase underscores both its enduring ties to the community and its plans for sustained growth. The bank has expanded significantly in recent years and now operates banking locations in Oklahoma, Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, Texas and Utah, in addition to providing mortgage servicing, private banking and commercial real estate lending nationwide.
For more than seventy years, under the ownership and leadership of the Records family, the organization has called Oklahoma City home. Its origins trace back to Midland Mortgage in the early 1950s, with MidFirst Bank founded in 1982 as the business expanded. As a family-owned institution, the bank says it benefits from the stability and long-term focus of private ownership while maintaining the scale and resources of a national financial institution.
MidFirst’s involvement in the Oklahoma City community extends beyond its banking operations. The company supports local organizations through philanthropy, volunteerism and corporate partnerships, with contributions spanning healthcare initiatives, educational programs and civic-focused nonprofits. It also serves as a founding partner of the Oklahoma City Thunder.
With $41.4 billion in assets, Oklahoma City-based MidFirst Bank is the largest privately owned bank in the United States. In addition to its retail banking operations across seven states, the bank provides commercial lending, wealth management, private banking and mortgage servicing services nationwide.
