Cadence Bank was founded as the First National Bank of Aberdeen, on April 30, 1887. In 1972, it changed its name to the First National Bank of Monroe County in 1972. In March 1974, it merged with Peoples Bank in Starkville, Mississippi, becoming the National Bank of Mississippi in May of that year. In October 1974, it merged with the National Bank of Commerce of Columbus to become the National Bank of Commerce of Mississippi. In 2005, it changed its name to Cadence Bank, N.A.[5]

The bank's parent company formed in 2009 as Community Bancorp LLC. In 2010, it secured $1 billion of capital commitments. It acquired Cadence Bank in March 2011.[6]

In April 2011, it acquired Superior Bancorp of Birmingham, Alabama in a transaction facilitated by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation due to Superior Bank's failure.[7]

In November 2011, the bank moved its headquarters from Starkville, Mississippi to Birmingham, Alabama.[8]
