Sunwest Bank has been consistently named one of the top performing banks in the United States by American Banker and SNL Financial. Sunwest’s primary focus is commercial business and real estate banking. Through 12 targeted locations across the Western United States, Sunwest offers a full suite of private and commercial banking services to its clients.
Since 2009, Sunwest has completed five failed bank acquisitions beginning with the acquisitions of MetroPacific Bank of Irvine. Later that year, Sunwest expanded the franchise south to San Diego with the acquisition of Pacific Coast National Bank. Its expansion continued beyond the California border with the acquisition of First State Bank of Flagstaff from the FDIC, adding a presence in Northern Arizona. In 2013, the Bank expanded into the Northwest by acquiring the Washington-based Westside Community Bank which added two locations outside of Tacoma. Sunwest then broadened its Northwest presence to Boise through acquiring the failed Syringa Bank from the FDIC, adding nearly $140 million in assets and a network of five Idaho branches. In the latter half of last year, the Bank broadened its footprint further by adding LPOs in both the Salt Lake City and Phoenix, Arizona markets. These three out-of-state acquisitions and two de novo LPOs have positioned Sunwest well as it embarks on its next expansionary phase.
Sunwest Bank operates with an iron clad balance sheet of $885 million in assets, $111 million in tangible capital and $4MM in reserves, making it well poised to continue its growth.
Sunwest Bank is the flagship of H Bancorp, a $1.3 billion privately-owned bank holding company with a controlling interest in Bay Bank located in the Baltimore/D.C. corridor. H Bancorp provides strategic leadership, access to capital and an opportunity to participate credits across the entire H Bancorp family.
