Q: What is Founders Bank?
A: Founders Bank is a modern version of what a community bank should be: one-part technology and one-part local bank. The bank is FDIC insured and officially opened for business in April of 2020 with a full-service branch and corporate offices in the Friendship Heights neighborhood of Washington, D.C. They recently opened a loan production office in the Ballston neighborhood of Arlington, Va.
Founders Bank seeks to build stronger communities by serving businesses, organizations and the professionals that run them throughout the greater Washington area. Experienced bankers offer business loans, real estate loans—owner occupied, investment, construction and development— deposit and treasury management services and consumer loans.
Q: Why do businesses and individuals choose Founders Bank over other banking options?
A: Customers choose Founders Bank to enjoy the latest technology, a user-friendly approach to banking and superior customer service provided by local bankers that care about the communities they serve. The pandemic and other recent events reminded many businesses and individuals of the importance of having the right banking partner. Founders Bank wants to be a true banking partner.
