PEWAUKEE – Five million dollars in new capital has been raised by Generations Bancorp, Inc., the parent company of Foundations Bank, from new and existing shareholders, according to a company statement.

Most of the new capital will be used as an equity injection into Foundations Bank, a subsidiary bank, according to the company. This injection will exceed the capital requirements of the Consent Order issued to the bank by the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation in 2010.

“There is a growing need for a strong, local bank in the Lake Country and Waukesha County markets. We are excited about our continued ability to deliver superior services to the families and businesses in our neighborhood,” said John Hazod, interim president. “The additional capital allows us to make additional investments in the bank so we can continue to deliver exceptional service, expertise and commitment to our community.”

Foundations Bank is located in Pewaukee and has total assets of $127 million.
