About
Southern Missouri Bancorp, Inc. is the holding company of Southern Bank (the Bank). The principal business of the Bank consists primarily of attracting retail deposits from the general public and using such deposits along with wholesale funding from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (FHLB), and to a lesser extent, brokered deposits, to invest in one- to four-family residential mortgage loans, mortgage loans secured by commercial real estate, commercial non-mortgage business loans and consumer loans. These funds are also used to purchase mortgage-backed and related securities (MBS), the United States Government Agency obligations and other permissible investments. In October 2013, Southern Missouri Bancorp Inc announced the acquisition of Ozarks Legacy Community Financial (Ozarks Legacy), Thayer, Missouri, and its subsidiary, the Bank of Thayer.
