The forerunner of Fidelity Bank--The Fidelity Investment Company — opened its doors for business in Wichita in 1905 as a mortgage lender. In 1942 Homer C. Bastian, Kansas` first director of the Federal Housing Administration, recognized Wichita`s growth potential as a trade area. He left the FHA and purchased one-half interest in Fidelity Investment.
