We focus on supporting small business, providing financial mastery education to our underserved, but highly deserving, communities, and real estate ownership, investment, and development with a particular emphasis on affordable housing. The Bank now has 13 branches and 3 loan production offices throughout the NYC Metro Area, Union City New Jersey and now Coral Gables, Florida and has grown to nearly $3 Billion in assets.
