It has approximately $1.808 billion in total assets, nearly $180 million in equity capital, and a branch network that includes 25 locations throughout Miami-Dade and Broward counties. Founded in 2002,[1] and initially serving mainly Hispanic-owned businesses, it grew quickly and planned to open up three more branches in 2003;[2] it was called "the little bank that could" in 2005, when it operated nine branches.[3]

In 2007, the bank was named Bank of the Year by both the Latin Builder’s Association and the South Florida Hispanic Chamber of Commerce.
