From the beginning, our bank concentrated its resources on serving the financial needs of entrepreneurs and their companies, professionals, and individuals whose financial affairs frequently require direct accessibility to senior management. As a locally managed subsidiary of Mellon Financial Corporation, a highly respected world-wide banking and investment management firm, our clients receive the convenience, responsiveness and top management involvement of a substantial local bank, combined with the depth and breadth of experience and service capabilities of a global financial services company.

Every successful businessperson or professional knows the value of time. Whether you are on the way up---or already there---you need a bank that is sensitive to demands on your time, and to your requirements for prompt and efficient service. We encourage on-the-spot decisions at the branch level, so you won't be bogged down in layers of bureaucracy. Tellers, platform personnel and officers are all able to provide quick solutions to your banking needs. We believe that you will find the bank's services consistently prompt and intelligent. What you won't find is equally important: long waiting lines, red tape, complex loan approval processes, and other frustrating and time-consuming characteristics of depersonalized, large banking organizations.
