At City First Bank, we believe that financial strength and social impact go hand in hand. As the only certified Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI), certified B Corp, and Minority Depository Institution (MDI) in the U.S. we are redefining what it means to deliver shareholder value through mission-driven banking.
City First Bank leverages decades of experience, deep community roots, and public market visibility under Broadway Financial Corporation (NASDAQ: BYFC)—one of only two publicly traded Public Benefit Corporations (PBCs) among U.S. depository institutions.
Strong Balance Sheet & Governance: A federally regulated, publicly traded platform led by an experienced, diverse executive team and Board.
Mission-Driven Performance: As a certified CDFI, over 60% of lending supports low-to-moderate income communities, targeting affordable housing, small business development, and nonprofit institutions.
Impact at Scale: In the last 5 years City First Bank has driven nearly $1 billion in loans to the underinvested communities it serves with more capacity to grow.
Recognition & Impact: Rated “Outstanding” under the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) and certified as both a CDFI and certified B Corp—validating our social impact.
We are committed to creating long-term value for our shareholders while expanding access to capital in historically overlooked communities. Our investor strategy is rooted in transparency, sustainable growth, and meaningful partnerships that foster systemic change.
