This is a bank that lacks significant coverage in reliable sources. The current references do not contribute to notability. A Google search didn't turn up anything. Citrivescence (talk) 03:40, 1 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment already stated keep above. I'm reluctant to personally invest a significant effort into improving this article due to some potentially-perceived COI conflicts. But mainly because I'm not interested in writing articles about companies. But since I am very familiar with the company, I have spent a relatively small amount of time sorting through newspapers.com archives to add some reliable, independent references that I think should meet notability concerns. Since this company has invested in a sponsorship deal with the city's premiere concert venue, most of the top pages of search results will turn up trivial mentions of the company in the context of various performances. So you have to use your Google-Fu to exclude mentions of the performing arts center in order to fairly evaluate the notability of the article subject. But you'll still have to wade through a whole lot of articles about various branches being robbed, ATM thefts, and so-and-so just got promoted in the company, and other trivial, non-significant mentions. The company is not well-suited to the typical AFD thirty-second google search to glance at whether it's a notable company. It's the second-largest credit union in the city, by assets (I recently added that reference to the article). This isn't an article about some garage band, or an "up-and-coming" business trying to generate enough buzz to survive its next round of funding. Hope that helps.

  • Keep, as seen here, there are about 50+ instances of independent coverage just within the past two years alone. In addition to the vast expansive local coverage, there's a quote in the New York Times and a paragraph in the Associated Press.
