Our History
First California Bank was established on February 27, 1979 as a local community bank with one branch in Camarillo, California and $1.250 million in initial capitalization. Over the course of the next 25 years, the Bank grew modestly expanding its offices to the surrounding communities of Westlake Village, Oxnard, Ventura and Thousand Oaks. By 2004, as the Bank celebrated its 25th anniversary, its total assets had grown to $268 million.
The next seven years First California Bank experienced tremendous growth. Through a series of acquisitions (South Coast Commercial Bank - 2005, 1st Centennial Bank - 2009, Western Commercial Bank - 2010 and San Luis Trust Bank - 2011) and a merger of equals (Mercantile National Bank and South Bay Bank - 2007), the Bank has grown to become an emerging force in Southern California banking.
Today’s First California Bank is stronger, bigger and better:
- Total assets of $1.8 billion
- 19 full service branches serving Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside,
San Bernardino, San Diego, San Luis Obispo and Ventura counties
