The conversion provides former AMCORE customers with full access to all Harris products and services, locations, ATMs, Harris Telephone Banking and online services including online banking, bill payment, Push to Talk and Harris Total Look®. In addition, all former AMCORE locations now officially carry the Harris name.

"The addition of AMCORE's quality branch network, valuable customer base, and talented employees has accelerated our growth strategy and enhanced our strong position in the Midwest," said Ellen Costello, President and CEO, Harris Financial Corp.
