Why Partner with a Community Bank as a Small Business Owner?
If you're in the process of starting your own business, then you're beginning an exciting journey, one that comes with plenty of financial responsibilities. One of the first steps you will take is establishing where you'll bank. Whether you're seeking financial advice, applying for a loan or simply opening a business account, a community bank has several advantages over larger financial institutions.
- You can establish long-lasting relationships
A community institution gets to know their clients—their financial needs, their loan history and their goals better than larger institutions. At a community bank, you’ll likely work directly with a single point of contact, such as a Relationship Executive at Pan American Bank & Trust, and you’ll receive a more personal small business banking experience as a result. Having a single point of contact makes banking easier and more personal for you. - You can support your local economy
As a small business owner, your local economy matters. By banking at a local institution, you’re feeding your money into the local market, which benefits your business and the other businesses in your local economy. - You know where you’re money is (and who’s handling it)
When you bank with a community bank, you’re keeping your money local. You’ve worked hard for the money that’s in your small business banking account, and you deserve to know exactly where your money is and the personnel that handle it. You can have a peace of mind and feel safer knowing that your hard-earned cash sits with a respected and trusted local bank.
When you start a small business, the decision of where to bank is a major one. Banking with a local community bank can provide you with opportunities like building relationships within your community, supporting your local economy and building a broader network of professionals. Be sure to ask your bank about their Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) rating. Pan American Bank & Trust has an outstanding CRA rating, which means we’re obligated and committed to help meet the credit needs of our local community.
