Miami’s smallest Banks are protecting themselves
The
largest banks in Miami
city have been regularly sold since 2018. Since then, 24 business
agreements have been signed, in which the sales of TotalBank,
F.C.B. Financial and Gibraltar Private Bank are included. TransCapital
Bank, located in Sunrise, Florida, was likewise sold in March of this year,
being acquired by the Power Financial Credit Union by $655mil,
in Pembroke Pines.
TransCapital
Bank was
a retail commercial bank found in South Florida with over $2.700mil in assets
spread through 19 different offices in the Miami-Dade County, from where
it offered its banking services to national and international
corporations, small businesses and particular clients.
F.C.B. Financial Holdings sponsored many
products and financial services to individuals, small, medium and large
businesses, as well as other entities and organizations located in South
and Central Florida. Meanwhile, the smallest banks still in
operation are making an effort to protect themselves and avoid the need to sell
their assets, and continue operating as usual.
In Banesco
U.S.A., located in Coral Gables, Florida, we have received over $11mil
in capital to be invested in new online and mobile banking tech
platforms for our clients.
In 2018 we started
looking for these new tech partnerships and in April of this
year, Banesco U.S.A. got the chance to join Silicon
Valley’s Plug and Play, which will grant the bank access to this platform
in order to optimize its commercial and user services.
Plug and Play is a program designed to
introduce startups to the Silicon Valley environment.
Though talks, tutoring sessions and active coaching, the client will receive
the necessary tools to present their proposal to investors.
