Company Description

Continental Perspective Bank NC (Proposed) (“CPB” or the “Bank”) is planning to be formed as a North Carolina state-chartered bank that will also become a Federal Reserve member bank. CPB’s main purpose will be to operate as a community bank providing “main street banking” services to customers in the North Carolina suburban communities in which it proposes to operate.

CPB plans to operate as a typical community bank but has developed a unique business strategy that it believes will enable it to gain significant customer base and to operate profitably from its inception. CPB proposes to focus in its initial years of operation on providing traditional banking products to the sizeable and growing number of Asian-American and other underbanked populations that reside its market area and subsequently to such populations residing in other suburban North Carolina communities. This primary targeted population consist of individuals and small business owners, many of whom remain underserved by the existing national, regional and community banks that currently operate in these communities.

The founding shareholders (“Founders”) of the holding company being formed to hold all of the shares of the Bank (the “Holding Company”) believe that CPB will be in a unique position to attract and retain as the Bank’s core deposit and loan base a significant share of the already large and growing Asian-American population for several reasons. First, as Americans of Asian heritage who are themselves successful businesspersons, the Founders have a unique perspective on the types of banking products of interest to the Asian-American community and the related services they will expect in exchange for their loyalty as customers. Second, the Founders have extensive experience in banking, asset management, venture capital, private equity and real estate that will allow CPB to be able to structure deposit and lending products that are attractive to the Bank’s targeted customer base and other underserved populations and that, at the same time, are consistent with the Founders’ desire for CPB to limit its product offerings to traditional banking products considered to have a relatively low-risk profile.
