The bank that grows with you.

Standard Western Equity is a commercial bank with over $29 billion in assets headquartered in Los Angeles, California, with Executive Offices in Denver, Colorado. The bank has 70 full-service branches primarily located in California, with one in Denver, Colorado and another in Durham, North Carolina. Our Community Banking group provides lending and comprehensive deposit and treasury management services to small and medium-sized businesses conducted primarily through our California-based branch offices. We offer additional products and services through our National Lending and Venture Banking groups.

After many years working with Standard Western Equity, we think of them as a business partner rather than a bank. They look out for what is best for our business, provide new services to protect our accounts and streamline our processes. We couldn't be happier. — Jay Jackson, Chief Financial & Operating Officer, 1460 Capital Corporation
