What efforts have been made to expand the bank’s customer base?
In 2008, Asian Bank of Arizona continued developing its local success story by aggressively
focusing on its core customers, Arizona small business entrepreneurs.
While other banks have snubbed the “little guy” to focus on acquiring deposits from
larger companies and corporations, Asian Bank of Arizona continues an aggressive
grassroots program targeted to entrepreneurs in previously underserved communities
of metropolitan Phoenix.
Staying true to its roots, Asian Bank of Arizona has specifically built strong community
partnerships with the Philippine American Chamber of Commerce, Chinese American
Citizens Alliance, Asian American Community in Action and The Asian Chamber of Commerce,
often hosting functions for each organization. These hardworking entrepreneurs have
learned to turn to Asian Bank of Arizona for financial answers, including SBA 504
loans, land acquisition loans, tenant improvement loans and other custom-tailored
solutions we proudly offer.
Asian Bank of Arizona “walks the walk and talks the talk.” Our team of professionals
speaks 10 different languages, ensuring a culturally relevant experience for metropolitan
Phoenix’s diverse population. But Asian Bank of Arizona is not solely focused on
the Valley of the Sun’s Asian communities. In fact, more and more professionals
valley-wide are turning to the commercial and real estate lending products we provide.
Asian Bank of Arizona will continue its commitment to Arizona’s small businesses
in 2009, while aggressively building its presence outside of the Asian community.
We are passionate about serving entrepreneurs throughout metropolitan Phoenix and
providing a level of customer service that only a locally operated bank can provide.
