In 1846, California became an independent republic for 28 days. Driven by a mission to unite and create a unique republic that truly represented the California spirit, a small group of hardworking, dedicated, and rebellious settlers raised their own sovereign ''Bear Flag.''
California Republic Bank was created with this same innovative and independent spirit. Our logo features the bank’s own unique flag, inspired by the historical maritime symbol for ''Pilot on Board.'' Traditionally, this flag was raised by ships requiring the services of local experts to help them navigate unfamiliar waters and deliver them safely to their destinations.
Today, that same tradition resonates in both our logo and our philosophy. As a local, California-based bank, we provide clients direct access to executive management and decision-makers, offering customized products delivered through highly experienced relationship managers and some of the best technology in the industry. We act as your local experts, providing the responsiveness needed to help you navigate financial waters and arrive safely where you want to be. The independent spirit of the original California Republic lives on in our bank; we are fully committed to outperforming national banks and remaining right here in California, which we feel is absolutely necessary to truly understand and proactively serve your needs.
