Item 8.01.    Other Events
 
On April 25, 2006, UMB Financial Corporation issued a press release announcing a two-for-one stock split of UMB Financial Corporation common stock. The stock will be distributed on May 30, 2006 to shareholders of record at the close of business on May 16, 2006. UMB Financial Corporation also declared a cash dividend of 13 cents per share (post split), payable July 3, 2006 to shareholders of record at the close of business on June 12, 2006.

In accordance with Rule 416(b) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), the number of shares of common stock registered for sale under the Securities Act by the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (file no. 033-64171) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 14, 1995 (the "Registration Statement"), will be deemed to be increased by the stock split to cover the additional shares resulting from the application of the stock split to the registered shares of common stock remaining unissued under the Registration Statement as of May 30, 2006. The Registration Statement, which incorporates this Current Report on Form 8-K, is hereby amended pursuant to Rule 416(b) promulgated under the Securities Act to increase the number of shares of common stock registered thereunder to reflect the effects of the stock split.
