Description: ASB Associated Banc-Corp

Associated Banc-Corp (NYSE: ASB) is a regional bank holding company founded in 1861 and headquartered in Green Bay, Wisconsin. It provides a broad suite of banking and nonbanking products to individuals and businesses across a primary footprint of Wisconsin, Illinois, Missouri, Texas, and Minnesota, with additional loan production offices in Indiana, Kansas, Michigan, New York, and Ohio.

The companys offerings span commercial and consumer lending, deposit and cash management, treasury services (including foreign exchange and interest rate risk management), fiduciary and wealth management, and retail transactional banking. As a regional bank, ASB operates a diversified revenue model that combines net interest income from lending activities with fee-based income from treasury management, wealth, and trust services - a structure typical of mid-cap regional banks seeking to offset margin pressure from core deposit and loan spreads.
