The Connection to the Church of LDS
The company’s history is closely intertwined with the development of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) and the broader history of the state of Utah. Its original entity, Zions Savings Bank and Trust Company, was founded by Brigham Young, the second president of the LDS Church, in 1873: The bank was integral to the economic development of Utah and the surrounding region, offering financial services essential to a growing population. The church divested its interest in 1960, and today the bank operates as a secular and separate entity.
