BankPlus is a Mississippi bank that ranks 2 of 306 in Jackson and 3 of 438 in non-metro Mississippi, with originations of 2,733 in 2025 against 2,745 the year before.
Second in Jackson, third in rural Mississippi
In Jackson it ranks behind only Trustmark Bank, with 7.6% of loan dollars against 8.1% a year earlier, and it has lent there since before 1990. In non-metro Mississippi it ranks behind Renasant Bank and Cadence Bank. Its originations held flat while similar banks' rose 2% and the whole market's 10%, which could explain the small slip in Jackson.
Lower shares on the Gulf Coast
Its share fell to 1.2% from 2.4% in New Orleans-Metairie and to 0.9% from 2.4% in Crestview-Fort Walton Beach-Destin. Flat originations in a growing market could explain part of it; fewer large loans could too, since jumbo loans (larger than the conforming limit) fell to 3.3% from 3.8%.
More government-backed lending and majority-minority areas
Similar lenders are state member banks making between half and twice as many loans. FHA loans (insured by the Federal Housing Administration) were 4.5% against 2.3%. VA loans (guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs) were 2.1% against 0.6%, higher than about three in four similar banks. Loans in majority-minority areas were 21.0% against 11.4%, higher than about four in five.
Steady since its 2021 peak
Originations peaked at 3,096 in 2021 and have stayed between 2,556 and 2,745 since. The filings of State Bank & Trust Company (merged 2020) and First Bank and Trust (merged 2022) count as BankPlus's in the competition figures.
