We are excited to announce the upcoming launch of Trust Company of the Dakotas, an independent trust company dedicated to providing personalized solutions that prioritize the unique needs of our clients. Our mission is to offer comprehensive trust services while supporting the growth and stability of local financial institutions.

Currently, central and western North Dakota are underserved when it comes to independent trust companies. Most are located in Fargo and affiliated with banks. Trust Company of the Dakotas will fill this gap, offering a truly independent option in Williston—designed to meet the specific needs of our community, without the pressure of deposit-driven objectives.

Backed by over 50 years of combined experience in trust and asset management, our team—led by industry veterans Dean Zaderaka, Adam Natwick, and Ross Perleberg—brings unparalleled expertise in trust administration, oil & gas, and operations. We are committed to safeguarding client assets, maximizing growth potential, and building strong relationships with local financial institutions.

When we open our doors, Trust Company of the Dakotas will be a trusted partner, dedicated to delivering flexible, client-centric solutions that align with your financial goals. We are here to guide you through every step, ensuring your legacy is preserved and your assets are protected.

Launch Date: 2024

Disclaimer: Trust Company of the Dakotas is currently pending approval from the North Dakota Department of Financial Institutions (ND DFI). We are not engaged in any trust activities at this time and will only operate as a trust company if and when we receive the necessary approval from the ND DFI.
