About us
American Riviera Bank opened for business on July 18, 2006 in Santa Barbara, California with the support of approximately 400 local shareholders.The Bank has two branches, located downtown Santa Barbara and in the upper village of Montecito.
American Riviera Bank followed a simple, low-risk community banking approach: accepting deposits and issuing loans to the local community. We could have pursued more exotic, potentially higher return investments, but not without exposing our customers’ money to higher risk.
