The sparebank was founded on April 7, 1862, to serve the prestegjeld of Grong which included Grong, Harran, Høylandet, and Røyrvik.[2] By 1905, both Høylandet Municipality and Harran Municipality wanted to have separate banks, and the bank was split into three branches. In 1955, the bank created a separate branch in Røyrvik and Bergsmo, the later being closed in 1997. The year 1975 saw the merger between Grong Sparebank and Lierne Sparebank, though until 2000 there was a separate board of directors for the Lierne branch. In the 2000s, the bank expanded with a branch in Steinkjer and in 2006 it merged with the smallest bank in Norway, Verran Sparebank in Framverran in Mosvik.
