A letter from the CEO of a Colorado CDFI bank. We’re a Colorado bank just like you, but CDFI too… No doubt you’ve heard about the new CRA rules soon to take effect. As a CDFI, did you know First Southwest Bank (FSWB) can help you increase your impact as a community bank and achieve your CRA compliance goals? It can be as simple as creating a deposit relationship or generating loan participations with FSWB. And, we created a technology platform, known as HelloBello (hellobelloapp.com), that makes it easy for community banks like yours to connect to FSWB…for low cost, risk-mitigating funding, and resources like technical assistance, grants and education for your clients. First Southwest Bank can help you create impactful investments, restore economic vitality in Colorado’s markets, and achieve your CRA compliance goals. I encourage you to reach out to me to learn more. Please give me a call at 970-422-5054 or send an email kent.curtis@fswb.com.
